Application Types

This page allows you to manage the different types of permits that you want to support using this web site.  Each permit can have a "Permit Type" and a "Permit Subtype".  Here are the rules of thumb for creating Permit Types and Permit Subtypes:

Create a new Permit Type when:

• You want to manage a completely different type of permit (such as a dinghy permit, a boat rack permit, etc.)


• You want users to enter a different set of information during the application/renewal process, and/or want to require different sets of information


• The wait list(s) for these permits are separate from those that exist for existing permit types


• You want to be able to view statistics about the number of permits of this type, broken down by status.

Create a new Permit Subtype (formerly called Permit Type) when:

• You want to be able to adjust the application/renewal fees based on some differentiation that doesn't appear elsewhere.


• The application/renewal process collects the exact same fields as an existing permit type


• You want to combine wait lists with other subtypes of the same Permit Type. 


• You want to view aggregate counts for all subtypes of the same Permit Type.
