Process settings
When you create a process, you become the Process Admin. Here's more about what a Process Admin can do in a process.
To configure or change the process settings, click the Manage button > Settings.
General settings
On the General tab, you can configure form titles, lock submission, and share quick links.
Configuring form titles
The form title is the unique name given to each item as it goes through the process workflow. To configure form titles, click the Add button (+) and arrange default system fields or form fields in the order that you want, and then click Save. Based on this format, titles are auto generated and are displayed on top of each process form.
Lock submission
When you are working on the process or making significant changes, you may want to stop members of the process from starting new items. To lock submissions, select the Do not allow new submissions checkbox, and click Save.
After enabling this, members will not be able to initiate new items and nothing will show in the feed. However, items in progress will continue to follow the workflow. Items in draft cannot be submitted until this option is removed.
Quick Link
Share this link with members of your process so they can immediately start a new item if they are logged in. If they are not logged in, they will be directed to the login page first.
Notification settings
On the Notification settings tab, you can enable and disable, preview, and customize the templates of long and short notifications sent to users for the different events triggered in your process.
Learn more about customizing email and notification templates.
Public form settings
On the Public form settings tab, you can enable and disable public form for a process.
To enable, turn on the Public form URL. Then, copy the URL and share it with anyone outside the organization.
To disable, turn off the Public form URL, and it will be disabled. Once the public form is disabled, the external users will not be able to initiate new items. However, the items that are in progress will complete the workflow steps.

Sequence numbers
On the Sequence numbers tab, youโll see all the configured sequence numbers for this process.
- Total sequence number displays the active prefixes for your sequence number field.
- The Prefix shows the prefix you configured in the form. If you use a dynamic field such as Department, it will show you the different numbers generated for different departments.
- Current number displays the number of current requests for each prefix.
To reset a prefix, click Reset on that particular prefix row. Then enter the number and click Reset. When a new request is raised in that department, the sequence number will start from that number.
Restart a particular sequence number
To delete a prefix, click Restart on that particular prefix row. This will erase the ongoing sequence number. When a new item is initiated in that department, by default the sequence number will start from 1.
Reset all and Restart all sequence numbers
You can also choose to restart and delete all the active prefixes by clicking on Reset all or Restart all.
By clicking on Reset all, youโll be asked for the number to restart with. When a new item is initiated it the sequence number will start with the entered number.
By clicking on Restart all will erase all the current sequence numbers. When a new item is initiated the sequence number will start from 1.
Multilingual settings
Multilingual settings allow Kissflow Process admins/developers and Board admins to customize and present their workflow forms in various languages by incorporating manually translated form labels.
For instance, if you've designed a form in English but wish to cater to Chinese speakers, follow the steps below. Once set up, the form will adjust to Chinese for users who've chosen Chinese in their profile settings, ensuring a seamless experience for both English and Chinese speakers.
- Select the language.
- Download the form labels.
- Manually translate the labels.
- Import the labels back into the form.
Note:
This feature is available for the standalone Kissflow Processes and Boards. Only languages available at the platform level will be supported within forms.
