Where do submitted forms go?

Hello all.

This may have already been discussed but I can't find an answer.

Some folks are requesting the ability to edit or at least see forms that
they've already submitted. This used to be possible but appears to no
longer be so. What is the history here?

Seems like a feature where you could see submitted data in read-only mode
might be handy. And/or you could resubmit, but only after clicking through
a warning?

Thanks in advance.

Tom

In ODK Collect 1.2.2,

On the 'Send Finalized Form' screen

  • click the menu button -- there is a 'Change View' option, which allows
    you to see just the Finalized unsent forms (the default) or the Finalized
    sent and unsent forms on the phone.
    (this is also available if you long-press the toggle button)

On the 'Edit Saved Form' screen, we do not allow you to edit already-sent
forms, but you can edit forms you have Finalized and not yet submitted.
Some finalized forms, however, cannot be editted -- you cannot, for
example, edit a finalized encrypted form, as the encryption process is not
reversible with any of the information available on the phone.

ODK Aggregate rejects all attempts to edit already-submitted data; allowing
you to edit already-sent forms therefore does not make sense.

The aim of the ODK 2.0 tools is to enable bidirectional updates of data,
and therefore it will support re-editing of already-submitted data.

I see. I'm assuming it wouldn't be too hard to override the no viewing of
sent forms constraint in our custom build. I wonder how hard it would be to
implement a read-only mode.

Read only shouldn't be hard. You can start from the hierarchy viewer
code and remove all the touch to edit code.

Hi Tom, I wondered if you followed throuh on your idea of implementing a "View readonly finalized forms" function. This would be helpful for my project. Thanks

Not as of yet, sorry!
