Hello Mara8321,

The scenario you are describing is something we commonly do in our forms. You really have 2 options depending on the outcome you want. Both will use a helper field that gets set on submit. It could default as "New" and then be set to "Submitted" when the user clicks a button to submit. You'll need a submit button with a data connection to the library where your form is published, and you'll want to disable the ribbon options.

1. On "formLoad" have a rule to switch views if your helper field is equal to "Submitted"

2. Have a formatting rule on each field to disable if your helper field is equal to "Submitted"

Hope that helps!
Bre

Switch to Read Only view after the form has been submitted

Hello,

I would like to know if there is a way to setup the form to read only view after it's been submitted. Or to disable all fields to prevent from updating the form after it's submitted?

Thank you

General
