Searching for Forms

There are currently four options for searching for UW Forms information:

1. By form number
2. By form title
3. By department
4. By keyword

1. Searching by Form Number
Currently all forms are stored in the database under their current 4-digit number (i.e. 1234). If you are looking for form 1034, select "Form Number" from the drop-down menu on the search page, enter "1034" in the search box and then click "Search." Questions? Contact your account manager.

2. Searching by Form Title
You may search for a form using a word from the form title. For example, if you are searching for a travel expense form, select "Form Title" from the drop-down menu, enter "travel" in the search box, then click "Search." You will get a comprehensive list of travel-related forms. Select any form from the list and click "View This Form" to view form details and availability. Questions? Contact your account manager.

TIP: If you are having trouble finding a form named, for example, "Compliance Statement for Honoraria Payments," try using simpler terms such as "honoraria" or "compliance statement."

3. Searching by Department
All forms in the database have a departmental "owner." This is the department that commissioned the production of the form. To search for a form by department, select "Department" from the drop-down menu on the search page, enter a department keyword in the search box, then click search. Some departments have more than one contact who has commissioned us to do forms, they are all listed. Questions? Contact your account manager.

TIP: If you are having trouble finding a form by department try narrowing the terms of your search. For example, try "housing" rather than "housing and food services" or "engineering" rather than "college of engineering."

4. Searching by Keyword
Many forms in the database have added "keywords" to help you find the correct form. Using a keyword search, you can look through the form description as well as these keywords. To search by keyword, select "Keyword" from the drop-down menu on the search page, enter the keyword to search for in the search box, then click "Search." A comprehensive list of forms will be displayed to choose from.

If you have any questions please contact your account manager.
