Access/Security Tab
Important
Information and features vary according to the roles to which you belong and the permissions associated with those roles. For more information, contact your module manager or your campus support team.
The settings on this tab allow you to define how users can interact with their form submissions.
Limit the Number of Times a User Can Submit
You can set a form-wide limit on the total number of entries the form will accept per form user. In other words, you can turn the form off after it receives a certain amount of entries from one user. If a user returns to submit and the threshold has been met, they will receive a message indicating they have met the submission limit.
Tip
This can be useful when you want to limit submissions for homecoming election ballots to one per person.
Make Submissions Anonymous
You can remove any user-identifying information from the form's metadata. When a form user submits their form, it will come into your desktop application as a guest user. This impacts meta-data only. If your form includes user-identifying questions such as name, address, ID number, it will be included on the form.
Allow Users to Review Their Submissions
You can allow form users to view their form using the View Reports link once it has been submitted.
Note
Unless they have permission to view all, form users will only be able to see their own submissions.
Limit Access to the Form
You can limit who can access to your form using a SQL query that filters form users. For example, you can make forms that only available for freshmen or seniors, parents, or faculty. If the form user who is logged in does not exist in this list, the form link will not be available.
