Editing Submissions
The new Submittable form engine does not allow an administrator to update or edit the contents of a submission. This change was made to preserve the submitter's data integrity. For changes to an existing submission, we recommend you open the submission for editing and ask the applicant or submitter to make the desired changes. Learn more about how to do so here.
If you need to make notes or add documents to an existing submission, the use of an Internal Form may solve the need to supplement or reformat a submission. Learn more about Internal Forms here.
