Invention Disclosures can be submitted in Cayuse Inventions from the Forms tab. You may review steps for manually creating a new form.
Please note: External parties needing form access will likely need to access it through the office website and not the navigation bar.
Form Submission
Once a form is submitted, the following steps will take place:
- The form submitter will receive a confirmation email.
- The assigned Intake Coordinator will receive an email notifying them to review the submission.
- If form updates are required, the Intake Coordinator can send it back to the submitter for changes.
- Once approved by the Intake Coordinated and converted to a Technology Record, the system will populate information from the invention disclosure form and attach a PDF version of the form to the record.
- Digital signatures will be required and can be obtained in two different ways:
- Username and Passwords: Forms can be electronically signed with Username and Password. Please note: this method does not offer strong encryption to support the signature.
- DocuSign: The form creator will receive a link to electronically sign the form on the DocuSign website. Once signed by all parties, a fully executed copy will be automatically sent to Inventions. The technology record will be marked as signed. This method is secure and offers strong encryption.
