View submissions
Access and track submissions across your organization from three pages, plus saved views on All Submissions that remember exactly how you like to work.
Overview
Submissions are the core of your workflows in Droplet. There are three pages for viewing them, each designed for a different purpose, and All Submissions also has saved views so you can switch between different slices of the same table. Which submissions you can see depends on your role and permissions.
- All Submissions
- Every submission in your organization that you have permission to view or act on. Best for submission managers who process forms across the organization. This page also carries saved views, including built-in My Submissions and My Assignments views and any private views you create.
- My Submissions
- Submissions you personally started. Best for tracking your own in-progress or completed work. Also available as a built-in view on All Submissions.
- My Assignments
- Submissions waiting for you to take action - approve, reject, or complete your part of the workflow. Best for staying on top of your daily queue. Also available as a built-in view on All Submissions.
All three pages now show the page icon on the same line as the page title. That keeps the header compact and leaves more room for results, which is especially helpful on smaller screens.
NEW The home page now shows both form submissions and eSign submissions assigned to you.
All Submissions
The All Submissions page displays every submission you have permission to see, with the page icon beside the title and the view, search, and filter controls in the toolbar above the results.
The All Submissions page provides the broadest view of submissions in your organization. If your role grants access to other users' submissions, you'll see them all here. Otherwise, this page shows only the submissions you initiated or those assigned to you.
Search and filtering now live in a compact toolbar above the results. Type in the search box or click Filters in the toolbar to narrow results by form, status, or other criteria, and click any column header to change the sort order. Click any submission to view its current status and details.
Date range filters are labeled Beginning on and Ending on. Together they return the submissions that fall between the two dates you pick, which may be based on a date other than when the submission was created.
Whatever you set up in that toolbar can be kept as a saved view. A view remembers your filters, search text, and sort order, so you no longer need a folder of browser bookmarks to get back to a list you use often. All Submissions ships with built-in My Submissions and My Assignments views, and you can add your own on top of them.
To work with your own views:
Set the search text, filters, and sort order you want, then save them as a new view and give it a name.
Adjust the toolbar again and update the view to save the new settings over the old ones.
Rename a view at any time if its purpose changes.
Delete a view you no longer need, and restore it if you deleted it by mistake.
Views you create are private to you. The URL query is still the source of truth for what the table shows, so any All Submissions bookmarks or deep links you already share keep working exactly as before.
Status and progress now share a single cell in the Status column. While a submission is still in flight, the cell shows a live progress ring so you can see how far along it is without opening it. Once the submission lands, the ring is replaced by an icon for its final status. The Packets and eSign Submissions tables work the same way.
Some fields may appear blank if the submission is still in draft (Not Started) or is part of an ongoing workflow (In Progress). In both cases the combined status and progress cell shows a progress ring, so you can tell how much of the workflow is left before the remaining fields fill in.
A voided eSign submission inside a packet now reports its own Voided status instead of being labeled rejected, so voided items are easy to tell apart from genuinely rejected ones.
If you spend most of your time processing submissions, the All Submissions page is your go-to for managing and tracking progress across forms. Save a view for each queue you check daily and switch between them from the toolbar.
My Submissions
My Submissions shows only the forms you have personally started, with the page icon on the same line as the title.
The My Submissions page shows every submission you have personally initiated. Click any submission to see the parts you've completed and check its current status in the workflow. The same list is available as the built-in My Submissions view on All Submissions.
This page is ideal for tracking the progress of your own submissions and making sure everything is on track. As on All Submissions, each row's status cell shows a progress ring while the submission is still moving through its workflow and a status icon once it finishes.
My Assignments
My Assignments lists submissions that need your attention, with the page icon on the same line as the title.
The My Assignments page (also your Home page) shows every submission that requires action from you - whether that's approving, rejecting, or completing your part of a form. The same list is available as the built-in My Assignments view on All Submissions.
Once you take action on a submission by advancing or rejecting it, it disappears from this page. This keeps your list focused on what's still pending.
Frequently asked questions
I can't find a submission. What should I do?
Try logging out and back into Droplet. If the submission still doesn't appear, your account may not have the required permissions. Contact your organization's Droplet administrator for help.
Why are some fields blank on a submission?
Fields may be blank if the submission is still in draft (Not Started) or if it's part of an ongoing workflow where later steps haven't been completed yet. The progress ring in the status cell tells you how much of the workflow is still outstanding.
Can other people see the views I save?
No. Views you create on All Submissions are private to you. The built-in My Submissions and My Assignments views are available to everyone, and because the URL query still drives the table, you can share a link to a filtered list even if the view itself is private.
What's the difference between All Submissions and My Assignments?
All Submissions shows every submission you have permission to see, regardless of status. My Assignments shows only the submissions currently waiting for you to take action, either on its own page or as a built-in view on All Submissions.
