Essentials

Transforming business process documentation

You need consistent processes across your teams - that’s where Tallyfy comes in. Instead of static documents that gather dust, you get live workflows through three template types. Effective process documentation ↗ turns tribal knowledge into repeatable, trackable workflows.

Traditional docs get ignored and outdated. Tallyfy’s active workflows stay current while giving you real-time tracking, performance data, and ways to improve continuously. Simple.

Workflow template types

Tallyfy gives you three template types - each one built for different needs:

  1. Procedure Templates - These handle your step-by-step workflows, SOPs, and standard procedures.

    • Perfect when you’ve got complex processes with steps that depend on each other (think employee onboarding, purchase approvals, compliance procedures).
    • Automation rules let you skip or add steps based on form answers1 - the system adapts as you go.
    • Assign tasks to specific people (members) or entire teams.
    • Track everything from start to finish. You’ll see exactly where each process stands.

  2. Document Templates - For your policy documents, reference materials, and company procedures.

    • Great for docs that need consistent formatting but flexible content order (social media policies, client guidelines, team protocols, compliance documents - you name it).
    • Set up form fields so team members can fill in specific details while keeping your document structure intact.
    • Lock certain sections that can’t change2 - keeps you compliant and on-brand.
    • Everyone works online. No downloads needed.

  3. Form Templates - For collecting business data quickly (Note: This feature is currently being updated and is unavailable)

    • Built to gather all your business info in one go - no multi-step hassles.
    • Mix and match question types and form fields to get exactly what you need.
    • Export your collected data for analysis or send it to other systems.
    • Works smoothly with your other workflows.

Choosing the right template type

Not sure which template to use? Here’s how to pick:

Choose Procedure Templates when you need to:

  • Track multi-step processes where order matters - step 2 can’t happen before step 1
  • Assign different steps to different people, departments, or teams
  • Make sure tasks get done in the right order (especially important for compliance)
  • Keep things moving in a specific sequence from start to finish

Choose Document Templates when you need to:

  • Create documents you’ll use over and over with the same format
  • Keep formatting consistent but let people customize the details
  • Build reusable templates for contracts, proposals, policies, or standard communications
  • Let your team collaborate on documents while keeping the structure intact

Choose Form Templates when you need to:

  • Collect lots of info quickly in one shot
  • Gather specific data, requirements, or feedback in a structured way
  • Create surveys, questionnaires, or data collection forms with different field types
  • Kick off automated workflows based on what people submit
