Areas
Areas are used in the Hintbox to give whistleblowers the opportunity to report information on various topics. In addition to the Whistleblower Protection Act, you can also use different areas to submit reports for the Supply Chain Due Diligence Act, complaints procedures in accordance with the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG) or submission of data subject rights in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and much more. By creating different areas, the start page of your Hintbox could look like this.
Create area
You can create as many areas as you like in the Hintbox. However, these only become visible on the start page when you create a public form is deposited.
To create an area, click in the form administration.
Click on areas there.

Click on new area.
To create an area you need the following information:
Area name: The area name is visible internally and should be understandable for all administrators.

Description: The text is optional. The description also appears on the button with which the whistleblower is forwarded to the corresponding form on the start page.
Full access: All users who should have access to reports in the area should be selected for full access.
Area logo: The logo is optional. It also appears on the button that redirects the whistleblower to the corresponding form on the homepage.
Linked clients: Linked clients are used to add clients to an area, which are available for selection in the detailed display of a report. If no clients are linked, all clients are available for selection in the detailed display.
