You can use the following link and go to this site where all the PureEdge forms are stored in a .zip file.

http://www.army.mil/usapa/eforms/index.html#eforms_range

 I recommend that if you are going to use this .zip with all the forms that you at a minimum redownload this .zip file once a week due to forms being obsolete, updated, new forms added etc so you are sure to have the most current version of any form that is available.

You will want to use the "click here" for the XFDL files, this is located at about the middle of the page.

The current Pure Edge software mentioned on this page above with the Approve It software currently on the ApproveIt page DOES work on Vista (32 & 64-bit) and Windows 7 (32 & 64-bit).

Please know that the APD help desk will only support you if you are using XP and Vista.  If you are using Windows 7, you can contact me

Formflow is also available  NOTE: APD has removed ALL Formflow forms from their website.

 

Digitally signing a form is simple when following these instructions

With a form open and your CAC inserted in the card reader

You should see your name, once you do, click the word Sign

It will prompt you for your PIN, type it in, then select OK
