Question

Can a Form process be configured to be accessed by 1 user at a time?

asked on April 2, 2018

Hi, 

 

Was wondering if it would be possible for a form process be locked to only be accessed by 1 user at a time? Is this possible? 

 

Scenario:

We have a client that is using the form to update a Database, but we need to make sure 1 user is only updating it at one time, as we do not want two users logged in to the process and updating the fields, 

 

Is this possible? or is there another way of achieving this? 

 

Thank you

Ziad

Hi Ziad,

 

Not sure if the first is possible.

But what if the Form started on a normal start event and not message start? The process would then be able to trigger workflow straight away and insert data(UID or something) into a database saying that this form is currently in use. You could then assign the form back to the initiator to make changes with a user task. At the end of the process you could remove the entry in the database. If another user was to start the form the workflow can check to see whether it is in use and then send an email back to them or something.
