Currently, only the forms designer can view/edit/delete form submissons. v5.0 and later allows the form designer to grant access to non-designer and other users via access control. For Example, you are a from desinger in the Human Resource department of a company. You have designed an Expense Statement form to be submitted by employees for monetary reimbursement. It has come to your attention that employees in the payroll department might need to view the Expense Report submissions also. You can use the Access Control feature to allow other users or groups to view the Expense Report form submissons. Editing/deleting the form submissions is restricted to the form designer only at this time.
