To streamline the user experience in our products we'll be making the Action List and My Documents options in the top header open as popup modals over the main screen.  We'll also be removing the 'Home' option in the top header since it's no longer needed with the user interface.  This new user interface will be coming on 12/16/2024 (desktop, tablet, and mobile). The below shows the current user interface vs the new user interface:

Now in the Form Settings you have two additional options in Submission Settings to limit the number of submissions for the given form:

Limit submissions to one per user:

Allows you to limit to only one submission per user in the form.  If enabled and a user creates a new document when they are the creator on another submission in the dataset the below validation error will display and the submit button will be inactive.

Limit total submissions for this dataset:

Once you click this option you can then 'Enter submission limit' to specify the limit of total submissions allowed in the form overall.  Could be used for a variety of scenarios - for example, a contest app that will only take the first 25 entries. If enabled and a user creates a document when the submission limit has already been met the following validation error will display and the submit button will be inactive.

Have you wanted to add a custom error validation in a form based on certain field selections?? Now you can with the new Validation gadget!!!

The Validation gadget can be used to add a form validation under certain criteria (beyond just "A required field is blank") to prevent submission or a workflow action.  Sometimes gadgets require a certain number of responses, or a field is only required if specific data is entered elsewhere in the form (otherwise it's optional), certain lookup selections aren't allowed, etc.  You can set any combination of desired criteria in the Validation rules to trigger when appropriate.

Within the Validation gadget you must first enter the desired Error Text that will display when the rule(s) for visibility are met.  And then you can add the desired rule(s) to fire that validation.  For example, in the below example the validation will display when the Sponsor selected is 'To Be Determined':

Within the form the user will see the Validation message immediately:

And if they attempt to submit the form or take a workflow action (i.e. Approve, Complete Task) without addressing the validation they'll also see the error display:

If you are pointing to other Kuali forms to pull data via a Data Lookup (List) or Data Lookup (Multiselect) gadget you now have options to configure when data will update from the linked document in the gadget Advanced Settings:

• Never - The data will be static once linked and never update from the source document.
• When the linked document is saved - This includes when a document is edited then saved on the specific version that is linked (whether as a draft, submitted to workflow, or completed). This does not update upon creation or saving of a new version of the linked document

Also, if versioning is enabled in the app you are linking to then you'll have additional document updating options based on versions - more information can be found in the Document Versions article.

Some things to keep in mind with this functionality:

• By default, all existing data lookups will be set to not update.
• If an admin updates an existing data lookup then it will only work on documents linked in the data lookup after the gadget configuration update is published. It will not impact the update logic on any existing document data.
• If a data lookup is configured to update when document is changed, and the linked document is deleted, the data from that document will be removed from the data lookup and all auto-linked gadgets.
• If a user tries to delete a document linked in a data lookup set to update on save, they will receive a warning. The warning will list the documents that will lose data due to this change.
• Data lookups that are configured to update cannot be used in calculations or integration fields.  If a data lookup is configured to update when changes are made, they will not be able to be used in calculations or integration fields because those fields could get out of date.
• If you have Document Versions enabled in the app you're linking to in the gadget and the lookup is configured to update with one of the new version options, it will also update when edits are saved to the currently linked document version.

The Autocomplete option in Short Text, Long Text, and Email gadgets allows you to configure an autocomplete suggestion for a form field.  By utilizing the user's browser autocomplete settings it will suggest a value on a form field for selection which can be used to improve the built-in accessibility of your forms. 

Autocomplete configuration will be omitted by default (even if autocomplete is not enabled, the browser still could offer hints).  If you don't want to include autocomplete at all you'll want to disable via the 'Off' option.  Below outlines the options when autocomplete is enabled on the field:

• On (Browser Default) - the default autocomplete logic set up in your browser settings will be used for possible suggestions.
• Off - the browser will not provide any autocomplete suggestions for the field.
• Name - will suggest the Name configured in your browser autocomplete settings.
• Phone number - will suggest the Phone configured in your browser autocomplete settings.
• Street Address - will suggest the Street Address configured in your browser autocomplete settings.
• Postal Code - will suggest the Postal or Zip code configured in your browser autocomplete settings.
• Custom - allows you to configure a custom autocomplete option via a html attribute.  More information in the link on how to set that up (requires a bit more technical knowledge).

More information can be found on this new setting in the Gadget Configuration Settings article.

We've added the below new Meta Data fields that are available in the Form Builder, the Workflow Builder, and in the Document List when creating reports:

• Last Modified By - The user that last modified the document. You can also pull the ID, Display Name, School ID, Email, and Username information associated with the Last Modified By user. 
• Last Modified At - The date the document was last modified.  Please note, the Last Modified At field for prior documents will show as 'Not available' until the document is modified.
• Workflow Runtime (From Submission) - Lists the amount of time a proposal has been in workflow after initial submission.  This value will populate once the workflow is completed for the document (statuses of Complete, Denied, and Withdrawn). Please note, in the export it will show the total amount of time it's been in progress in milliseconds.
• Workflow Completed At - Displays the date the proposal completed the workflow.

More information can be found in the Meta Data Fields article.
