Can a user edits the form once submitted?

    1. If the form is partially completed and then a seller hits submit, can they then go back in and and edit again or is it a one time submit?
    2. In the past we would input some of the answers to questions on the Questionnaire we already have answered during the valuation. We would then send the Questionnaire with the answers to have the seller complete so they don't have to type in stuff we already know. Can we do this with the Questionnaire? Meaning, type in answers that are in the valuation into the Questionnaire and forward a link to the seller to complete the rest of the questions? 
    3. Once a seller does finish and hits submit, can we go in and edit or add answers?

    Hi Evolution Advisors,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Sure, you can set it up so that anyone who submits your form can edit it after they've submitted it. It's easy, let's do it:

    • Open your form in Form Builder, and in the orange navigation bar at the top of the page, click on Settings.
    • In the Settings menu, click on Emails and hover your mouse over the Autoresponder Email.
    • Click on the Pencil icon, and in the window that opens, click on the Form Fields dropdown menu and select Edit Link.
    • After adding the link, click on Save, and you're done.
