By default, when you modify a keyword value on an existing form, the value will be saved regardless of keyword modification rights and settings in the Configuration module. These settings include if a Keyword Type is set to read-only or if the logged in user does not have the Modify Keywords privilege. If you want to enforce the keyword modification configuration for the Keyword Types on a form, you must configure the form to not override those Keyword Type privileges and settings. To enforce keyword modification privileges:
- With the form for which you want to configure open, select the Form Properties tab within the Properties pane.
- Select Enforce Keyword Modification Privileges.
This setting will only affect forms that use that specific template revision. Enabling Enforce Keyword Modification Privileges on an existing form template will not make previously submitted forms enforce the keyword privileges.
When Enforce Keyword Modification Privileges is set and users do not have modify rights or do not have the Access Restricted Keywords privilege, set in the Configuration module, users that do not have access to modifying keyword values will not be able to submit the form when keyword values are changed. Depending on the Keyword Type's configuration, the user may need both the Modify Keywords and Access Restricted Keywords privilege to be able to modify keyword values when the Enforce Keyword Modification Privileges options is selected. See the System Administration documentation for information about Keyword Type configuration.
