Continue to Form Selection and choose the data-collection form the microplan will use.

Add indicators
In Indicators, name each measure and map it to the matching field in the selected form.

Configure deployment
Select the administrative areas and deployment units included in the plan. Confirm that the scope matches the intended campaign geography.

Assign teams
Assign the responsible teams or users to the selected units. Resolve any unassigned areas before proceeding.

Set the approval workflow
Add the required approval steps and responsible roles. Review the completed configuration before publishing the microplan.

Note: Publication makes the plan operational. Validate the form, indicators, deployment and team assignments first.
A microplan is configured for the selected operating areas and teams, ready for review and publication.
