Need 3rd section of Form to become available after "Submit" based on selection

I have a form that I need to open in 3 stages based on selection. I am using not([Form Mode].[Is New Mode]) to open the second group on the form after "Submit" and I need to know how to get the same effect for the Third section to do the same based off a selection from Group 2. I have a rule set up now to unhide section 3 based on selection but I do not want section 3 to show until after the form is submitted. Any help here is greatly appreciated.

Hi @Lee596 


 


I suggest the following.


Use a SP column to keep track of your application status.


StatusFlag = 1. New Form  (Show Group 1)


StatusFlag = 2. Submitted Form (Show Group 2)


StatusFlag = 3. Await Approval Form (Show Group 3)


 


"1,2,3" is just a suggestion. You are free to use "New, Submitted, Pending"


The values are updated by the workflow after certain stages of the workflow are completed.


Set StatusFlag to "2" after form has been submitted.


 


Use the Form Rules to show/hide the Groups


 


StatusFlag == 1 



StatusFlag == 2



 


StatusFlag == 3



 


Here in the examples, I made the StatusFlag field visible to show the current Status, 


You should make hide the field after development/testing.


 


Cheers
