Hello, I am trying to create a visible rule within my responsive form for a group field to only show when the form is in new mode AND if the person is the submitter. Otherwise, this specific group section will not be visible. 

 

Is this supported with New Responsive forms? Currently I can create the rule if it is in New form mode or if the the person opening the form is the submitter. I can’t seem to include both options.

Below is what the rule looks like to accomplish this scenario. This will show the Group control if you open a new form or the current user is the submitter of a previous item.

You can find the “Current user login name” and “Item: Created by (Login ID)” variables in the Context section when you click on the blue Insert tab for each condition.

Hi @JosePC 

That’s right with new Responsive form

 

You need to use the OR
New form mode OR Current User is the Submitter (Created)
When New - New Form mode will be TRUE
When re-open form, Current User is the Submitter will be TRUE 

 

When you use AND, the Rule will not work

New Form
New Form mode will be TRUE
however Current User is the Submitter will be FALSE as the form has not been submitted yet.

Open Form
New Form mode will be FALSE
Current User is the Submitter will be TRUE
For the AND condition to be valid, both condition has to be TRUE

 

Hope that helps

Thank you both for the reply. Moving it out of the visible rule within the field to the rules sections was the trick.
