Managing Tasks in a Form
From your folder or the Forms dashboard:

Note: Creating a new sub task (also called child task) removes the available answer options from the parent task.
From your folder or the Forms dashboard:
Copy Tasks
Note: This functionality is the same for sub-tasks
- Select COPY
to copy your task.
- Enter the title of your new task in the pop-up box and select the CONFIRM button.

to ensure the task settings are correct by amending the current task (as detailed in Create a task within a form).
Delete Tasks
Note: This functionality is the same for sub-tasks.
- Select DELETE
. You will see a pop-up asking if you are sure you want to delete it.
- Select YES, DELETE to confirm deletion OR select CANCEL to return without deleting.
Note: Deletion is permanent. You will not be able to retrieve a deleted task.
Publishing the form
Before a form is published, only the user who has created the form can view or use it. Once it is published, it becomes visible on the forms page and available to all users/devices in Compliance.
- Select PUBLISH
to publish your form.
Note: Only publish your form when you are sure you have created all the tasks you require. You cannot edit a published form. You can only duplicate the form to create a new draft if you need to edit the contents.
Changes to the form will be stored when saved, but they will be only visible on the forms page once the form is published.
