Edit Link Query

    Hi,

    I am creating a supplier pre-qualification form for new suppliers. The first stage of the workflow will be a document check, and the idea I have is that if something is incorrect, that an edit link e-mail is sent to the supplier so that they can edit.

    My question is: If the supplier edits the form, is it treated as a new submission, and does it restart the workflow?

    Many Thanks,

    Vicki

    Hi Vicki,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. If a submission was edited, it won't be treated as a new submission, but it can restart the workflow. There's a setting that you can disable to prevent the flow from restarting when a submitted was edited. Let me show you how:

    1. In Form Builder, click the downward arrow icon at the top and select Workflow Builder.

    2. In Workflow Builder, go to Settings.
    3. Then, choose Disabled on the Restart Workflow On Submission Edit option.

    Give it a try and let us know if you need more help.

    Awesome, thanks Neil!

    One more question...do I just add {edit_link} and it generates automatically?

    Hi Vicki,

    To avoid confusion, I moved your other question to a new thread and helped you with that here.
