# Status tracking - process steps

From May 2026 it is possible to add an additional section to the launch page of a form to allow the status of a matching request in Open Process to be displayed.

A new feature has been added to Forms Management that allows a Status Tracking feature to be added to forms.  When enabled (Setting: EnableStatusButton) a new section is displayed on the launch page of the form as below:

Entering the reference number of a previously submitted form and clicking **Check** will retrieve the Steps from Open Process where a matching process for that reference and form type is found.  Details are displayed as below:

The Process Step details are retrieved from Open Process regardless of whether the form was submitted from a customer account or not.

This powerful new feature enables councils to sign-post citizens - using form submission emails or process step emails from Open Process - to the launch page of the form in order to track the progress of their request without ever needing to contact the council.

**Note: this new feature is available from May 2026 in version 2.19 of the Forms package but the functionality is also dependent on the latest versions of OneVu (2.19) and Open Process.**
