FAQ: Can I edit a duplicated form?
Yes, you can edit a duplicated form in both the GoFormz mobile and web apps.
Duplicating a form can be incredibly useful when users are tasked with completing a document that shares significant amounts of data with a form they have already filled out. For example, if a landscaping team were to complete several projects for the same client, duplicating a form that already contains the project’s client, location and contact information can save time that would otherwise be spent filling in redundant data. In such a situation, duplicating the existing form and making changes to the few fields that are different results in beneficial time savings (rather than wasting time filling out a completely new form with the same information).
Editing a duplicated form is easy –– let’s walk through the simple steps and get started:
In the GoFormz mobile app
Select the Form Actions button
Tap ‘Copy’
Rename your duplicated Form
Edit the fields you would like to change
In the web app Form Editor
Open the Form you wish to duplicate
Open the Form drop down menu (upper right hand corner)
Select ‘Duplicate’ - once your form has been duplicated, a dialogue box will appear alerting users that they are now editing the duplicate form (if you are duplicating a completed Form, your new Form copy will be generated as a draft)
Add your new form name
Click ‘Save Changes’
Edit the fields you wish to change
