# Workspace (https://dev.tradieforms.com.au/docs/features/workspace)

The app sidebar is your map. It is split into **Forms**, **Library**, and **Account**.

The sidebar splits into Forms, Library, and Account. Support and Documentation links sit below these, at the bottom of the sidebar.

## New form and search [#new-form-and-search]

Use **New form** at the top of the sidebar to start quickly. It shows recommended forms based on your state, trade, and recent picks. Use **View all templates** if the form you need is not shown.

Use **Search** to find app pages, actions, forms, and PDF tools without hunting through the sidebar.

If **Jobs** appears under **Features** in Settings, turn it on to show Jobs in the sidebar. Jobs is still being rolled out and may not be available on every account yet. Free can view up to 3 active jobs created automatically when forms are completed. Paid plans can create and manage jobs without an active-job limit.

Open the AI assistant from the app header on any app page, or **Fill with AI** from the form toolbar while filling. You can turn it off for your account under **Settings -> Features**.

## Local and cloud work [#local-and-cloud-work]

- **Guest and Free:** public forms save locally in this browser. Local drafts can appear on the same device for up to 7 days.
- **Solo:** cloud drafts save to your personal account and sync across devices.
- **Team:** cloud drafts save to the selected business workspace.

Switch workspace from the account menu. What you create follows the active personal or team workspace.

## Completed forms [#completed-forms]

A record appears under **Completed** when you download a PDF and **Store completed form data** is on in Settings.

From a completed record you can:

- Open saved answers and download again
- Rename the record
- Duplicate it as a starting point for similar work
- Regenerate the PDF
- Download the stored PDF when stored PDF copies (Solo) or PDF audit trail (Team) is available
- View **PDF history** on Team (or stored PDF on Solo) when enabled
- Send the PDF to ServiceM8 when connected with PDF upload enabled
- Send the PDF to Fergus or Xero where that integration is connected and PDF upload is enabled
- Create a share link on a paid plan
- Archive or delete the record, subject to workspace permissions

Free accounts can see the last 3 completed records. Paid plans can see full history.

## Archived forms [#archived-forms]
