What is the Office Use Only Setting?

As an app administrator you may find at times that there are fields or information that you want hidden from the submitter of the form, but should be visible and available to everyone else (approvers, acknowledgers, etc.).

The Office Use Only setting will allow you to hide a section of fields and information from the submitter of the form.

Note: If the submitter of the form is a designated approver of the form, they will have access to view the Office Use Only section during the approval process.  Also, please be aware that the PDF export of the form will show the entire form (including Office Use Only sections).

Once a section has been added to your form, the option to enable the Office Use Only setting will display in the configuration to the right.  With this setting enabled, you will be able to hide the section from the submitter while allowing all others to view the section and the information it contains at any step of the workflow process.

The office use only setting is only available for Sections.

Note: If you've enabled Conditional Permissions, users with the read documents, access document list, or update document will be able to see the entire document (including Office Use Only section information).
