  • Any external references will reflect the current user data, not the data at the time the form was filled in. This includes lookup tables, user groups, and product/location data (fixtures).

  • All existing Web Apps limitations apply. See Web Apps - Known Issues and Limitations

  • Forms that reference a User Case property should not be modified using this feature. 

  • Any advanced case operations (from hard-coded XML or casedb references) do not have defined behavior. They are likely to reflect the latest state of the case and not the state when the form was filled in.

  • Behavior with CommTrack / ledger references is undefined.

  • You may need to perform a user data reset to see the latest updates on another device.

  • Editing forms that use repeat groups to create cases will create new cases instead of updating old ones

  • Forms submitted via Web Apps or App Preview cannot be modified using this feature.
