Navigating the submission form
On every screen (page of the form) you will find a Form Navigation contents box; this links directly to every page of the submission. Click the link to jump directly to the page you are after.
You can also click 'next page' or 'previous page' on the top or bottom of each page to move forward or backward through the submission form.
Saving your draft submission
If you wish to leave a partially completed submission, press 'save' and log out. When you log back in and click on the 'My Submissions' link at the top of the screen, you will find a list of any submissions you have started or submitted. You can reopen your draft submission and start where you left off.
You can also download a submission form, whether draft or completed, as a PDF. Click on the 'Download' button located at the bottom of the last page of the submission form.
Submitting your submission
A reminder that the deadline for GACC submissions is 5pm Wednesday prior to a fortnightly GACC meeting. Find the upcoming GACC meeting and submission deadline schedule here.
You will find a ‘Review and Submit’ button at the bottom of the navigation panel. You need to review your completed submission form before you can submit it.
Once you have reviewed your submission, click 'Submit' at the top of the screen or on the navigation panel. You will not be able to submit until all the compulsory questions on the form are completed.
Once you have submitted your completed form, no further editing or uploading of support materials is possible.
When you submit your form, you will receive an automated confirmation email with a copy of your submission attached. This confirmation email will be sent to the email you/your department or agency used to register.
If you do not receive a confirmation of submission email then you should presume that your submission has NOT been submitted.
Attachments and supporting documentation
You may need to upload/submit attachments to support your submission. This is very simple, but requires you to have the documents saved on your computer, or on a storage device.
You need to allow enough time for each file to upload before trying to attach another file. Files can be up to 25MB each; however, we do recommend trying to keep files to a maximum of 5MB – the larger the file, the longer the upload time.
If you have files larger than 25MB each, please contact the GACC Secretariat to discuss an alternative method to submit the files.
Completing a submission in a group/team and internal approvals
A number of people can work on a submission using the same departmental log in details as long as only one person is working on it at a time. Ensure you save as you go.
Each department will have individual internal processes, but we would advise sharing your departmental login details within your wider communication team (for example to Director Level), and then downloading the draft submission as a PDF (click on the 'Download' button located at the bottom of the last page of the submission form) for higher-level approvals within a document management/tracking system.
When all relevant internal approvals have been secured, you can then finalise your submission. You will find a ‘Review and Submit’ button at the bottom of the navigation panel. Once you have reviewed your submission, click 'Submit' at the top of the screen or on the navigation panel. Once you have submitted your completed form, no further editing or uploading of support materials is possible.
