SVM102080 - Files and Forms: »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp Swiss Workbook

SWISS is a computer based workbook. It gives SAV staff, and their managers, an overview of their case allocation, including the number on hand and old cases, and is also the closure form for completed cases. Once a valuation has been completed, SAV staff can close the case down from the workbook using the statistical closure forms and this information is automatically collected centrally.
