IV. Modifying an existing EOM Form Purpose: to fill out the form, by tab, by checkbox, by attaching files In the main EOM form page; note that there are 6 tabs across the top of the form, all of which can potentially be filled out. These tabs are as follows: 1. Store Info 2. Civil Engineer 3. Architect 4. Outside Legal 5. Shaw Environmental 6. Wal-Mart Figure 4.1a EOM form page, Civil Engineer tab Also, each section of the form consists of a variety of check boxes. Upon clicking on one of these check boxes, a new section of the form is revealed. If any check box is not checked (and subsequently filled out), then the EOM will treat that section as incomplete, and create the resulting form without including that portion (see Figure 4.1b).

To navigate through these corresponding pages either: 1. select the page number from the drop down box, or 2. navigate though the pages using the Previous and Next page links.
