How to Achieve Closed-Loop Business Processes Using QR Codes

Original article: https://cli.im/article/detail/2154

In daily operations, we need to track and document various business processes to monitor current progress, such as hidden danger reporting and rectification, business application processing status, etc. CaoLiao QR Code offers forms functionality to submit records, initiate business applications, and enable continuous follow-up and feedback recording for closed-loop process management.

Through the follow-up progress tracking feature in forms settings, we can collect records submitted by frontline staff and mark processing progress in record details to track current case status. Additionally, we can enable the follow-up actions feature to document handling processes, providing comprehensive visibility into business progress.

Key Benefits

  • Submit forms and initiate business applications anytime via QR code scanning
  • Automatically notify responsible personnel for timely processing
  • Mark current progress and document handling processes to form closed-loop tracking
  • View complete process history and export records for archiving

Applicable scenarios include hidden danger reporting, fault repair, business application processing, internal approval tracking, etc.
