Approval Work Flow - User with permissions can add new resources and forms and then submit them for approval CHRID admin can approve the resources as appropriate and flag them for public view and upstream view.
Web Service Hierarchy - Version 1.0 includes support for a star topology of stand alone Certified Local Government (CLG) installations of CHRID that are capable of interacting with a master database (OHP) through a service registry.  Data can be automatically ported "upstream" to the master database for review.
API Access - All the functions for Adding, Editing, Approving and Searching the CHRID system are available as Web services through an API. You can use them to create additional tools and utilities for other platforms and languages.
Granular Security - Using groups you can narrowly define the roles of uses so that they can only work with a subset of Forms. For example, you could define a group for adding Mills Act only.
Data Entry Wizard - Using the data entry wizard you can create a new resource and add any supported forms as a single event or set of steps.
