    Boa tarde, tudo bem?

    Gostaria de saber se consigo criar um campo de verificação exemplo:

    Vou criar um novo formulário para inscrições dos nossos novos residentes, porém cada pessoa pode escolher apenas 1 especialidade, mas vários alunos acabam realizando várias inscrições porém existe 1 taxa para realizar a matrícula.

    a minha pergunta seria consigo criar um campo exemplo: CPF ou de outra informação que quando realizado a matrícula não permite realizar uma nova inscrição, pois já consta o dade no formulário?


    Atenciosamente, Anderson.

    Hi Anderson,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Unfortunately, our Portuguese support agents are busy helping other Jotform users at the moment. I'll try to help you in English using Google Translate, but you can reply in whichever language you feel comfortable using. Or, if you'd rather have support in Portuguese, let us know, and we can have them do that. But keep in mind that you'll have to wait until they're available again.

    Now, let me help you with your question. To prevent multiple submissions, you can set your form's unique field to an email address. So, if the same student tries to submit your form a second time using the same email address, it will show an error of 'Sorry, only one entry is allowed'. Let me show you how you can set email for the unique field:

    1. On your My Forms page, hover your mouse over your form and click on Edit Form on the right side of the screen.
    2. In Form Builder, in the orange navigation bar at the top of the page, click on Settings, and then click on Show More Options.
    3. In the Form Settings menu, scroll down and select email for the Unique Field option. That's it.

    As you can see, the form did not allow another entry using the same email address. Here is the demo form, you can check it out. Here is another helpful guide on unique submissions and some features to prevent multiple submissions.

    Let us know if you have any other questions.
