Currently I am developing an Infopath form, to be used in Sharepoint form library.
I want the ribbon to be hidden, and user is going to submit form by a button after last field.
After user had submitted the form, data from form is going to be reviewed by another user(from HR), and he will fill a set of hr-specific fields - comments on what is inside. The problem is, that if I do not have a "save" button from the ribbon, the only thing user is capable to do is to submit it once more, creating another file. I do not want users to name files whatever they want, which is why I disabled the ribbon in the first place
How can I create a save button, without using code(Sharepoint configuration does not allow that)?
I managed to create a very similiar behaviour, by using rules.
I added new hidden field to the form, called fileName. I created two submitting options save and submitNew. The latter is creating filename, the first is loading it from field fileName, and can overwrite.
I set submitting options non-standard rules, and then created two rules:
fileName is empty, create new file name(for me, it is joined timestamp and city), and add it to fileName, and submit it using submitNew. fileName is not empty, submit file with name loaded from this field using save.No need for ribbon nor custom code.
