The Submit the BSR-9 tool provides a built-in version of the ANSI BSR-9 that you complete online, then submit to ANSI (along with all the appropriate attachments) with the click of a button. The built-in ANSI BSR-9 has been verified as a faithful replica of the current ANSI BSR-9 form by ANSI. The email sent to ANSI presents information in an easy-to-read tabular format that faithfully follows the structure of the ANSI BSR-9 form.
This form is accessed through the Project Submissions page. It is only available if the Kavi Submissions module is installed on your site and submissions are enabled in the underlying Project Type on which this project is based.
When you submit the form, the event is automatically recorded as an activity in the Activity Schedule. A copy of the submission form email is sent to a mailing list created specifically for this purpose, so that the submission forms email and it's attachments are automatically archived. The mailing list address takes the general form 'status_tracker@example.org'. A link to the status_tracker mailing list appears on the Admin Home page in the Mailing Lists section. Click this link to visit the status_tracker Mailing List Home page. This is a moderated mailing list, so the message must be approved by a moderator before it will be posted. Once posted, administrators can view the message and its attachments in the archives.
