Enable applications

You must determine which modules and application types, such as the building residential permits from Building Module, you want to make available to public users. It is at the application type level you enable the record type to ACA and define if you want a user to be able to auto-issue the record after an application is complete. You also configure the renewal details at the application type level if you want public users to renew records online. For details on setting an FID, refer to the Accela Civic Platform Configuration Reference.
