    Hello!

    I'm emailing to inquire into whether what I've described above is possible.

    I work for a company that runs multiple facilities at which forms needs to be submitted everyday at closing. We'd like to be able to receive an alert if by 12:00am, a specified form was not submitted.

    Please let me know how this could be done. Thanks!

    Thank you for contacting us.

    Unfortunately, that is not possible. However, you can disable a form on a specific date and time, which you might want to consider.

    Once it has reached the date and time set in the settings, the form will automatically be disabled and display a warning message. But if you want the form available again, you will need to enable it back manually.

    I hope this helps. Let us know if you need any further assistance.

    Hi, thanks so much for your response.

    Is there anyway I could submit a feature request to have the functionality I described above implemented? We're still searching for our ideal form software. We're incredibly impressed by Jotform; It checks all the boxes for our company's needs except for this one thing.

    Thanks for your time.

    Of course.

    I have forwarded your request to our Developers, and as soon as we hear back from them, we will let you know.

    Unfortunately, we are not able to let you know when or if this feature will be implemented.

    alternatively, we have email reminders, that you can set to be sent once a day at a specific time. You can learn more here:

    Thank you for your patience.
