Users Unable to Submit (Save) Unity Form

Hello,

Our users are receiving an error when trying to submit a Unity Form. The error is "There was an error saving the form". 

I am wondering if we are missing some usergroup permissions? Besides having access to the product rights "HTML Forms" what else does a usergroup need to have for permission to just submit a Unity Form? The Unity Form MRG for Onbase 16 only says HTML Forms are needed for users to submit. 

Thanks,

Mike

We have had that error as well. What we found is that even though it gave that message, the form was still saved. There were two issues. The first was a missing "Create" privilege on the form's document type for the user accessing the form. The second was that the workflow to which the form was added had a transition in the system work in the Initial Queue. We had to move the transition to be within a timer  instead (to run like every 3 minutes or so). That took care of it for us.

When I get that error, it is usually a problem with the workflow I have the form going to.  Is there a workflow or System Event your form is assigned to?  Does the Diagnostics Console give you any clues?

Thanks for the comments everyone!

It was a missing "Create" Privilege on the forms document type that was causing the error. In addition, we had the document creating 2 workview objects that needed to have the usergroups have "Create" privileges in workview as well.
