Adding Custom Tests

Adding Custom Tests


The custom test feature is a great option for those TPAs that offer a variety of services and testing options. If there is not an option already created for your specific testing needs, you now have the option of adding your own custom test.


You are able to save your progress and come back to finish editing later by following the instructions under the final step for creating the custom test.


When creating a new test record, any field left empty will not show on the final report.


Step 1:

Select “Settings” then “Test Management” from the left-side menu at the top of your screen.


Step 2:

Now select “+” from the top right corner of the Manage Test table. Or, you can copy in one of the Test Templates


Step 3:

Now you are able to name your new custom test by clicking on the test name.



Step 4:

You are able to add new sections to the test by selecting “Add New Section”.



Step 5:

Next you are able to name the section and add a description for the section.


**When editing fields and sections, you will need to make sure you are editing from the properties section of your screen.


Step 6:

If you would like the section to be full size select the “Full Width” option in the section properties.



Step 7:

Now select “+Add New Field” inside the section you have just created.

  14. Signature - use a phone or tablet to capture signatures drawn on the screen.

Step 10:

To add more fields select the “+Add New Field” option. 


Step 11:

To create more sections select the “+Add New Section” option.


Step 12:

Once you have created all the fields and sections you require, you are able to preview how your custom test will look by selecting the “Preview” toggle at the top of your screen. This will provide you with a visualization of what the form will look like when you are filling it out.


Step 13:

If you are satisfied with how your report looks, select the “Save As New” button at the top of your screen.


Step 14:

Now you will be asked to enter a name for the custom test and then select “Save”.
