What's new in Rules? Form rules for updated records, fresh UI and more

Hello fellow form builders,

Creating rules in Zoho Forms doesn't only make your forms smarter and more efficient, it also acts as the ultimate time saver in your efforts to personalize the form-filling experience. 

To maximize the efficiency of rules, we've made a few tweaks that you will absolutely love:
  • Form rules performed for updated form records
  • Shift between rules
  • New UI

Form rules for updated form records 


Configuring form rules for workflows doesn't necessarily stop with assigning a task or sending out emails for every new form submission. You can also enable these workflows for the form records that are being modified after submission

This will require an additional configuration under the Updated Record section. You can start configuring the rules per your business needs. This way you don't allow any form submissions to skip the workflow, no matter if it is a new record or a modified record. 



Shift between rules


When you're uncertain about creating a rule, you can cross-check your rules, and still come back and finish your setup from where you left it. To do this, you need to use the    icon to minimize the specific rule configuration, and then you can start accessing your other rules. 

Note that you won't be able to assess form-building features other than the specific rule setup page you are currently in. To re-open the rule, navigate to the bottom-right corner and click on the  icon on the minimized rule's window. 


Easy-to-understand UI 


The new UI features a tint of green and gives you a standard experience on par with the rest of the form building experience. It also emphasises the buttons, making navigation easier than before.

Over to you!

Best,
