Delete a Draft based off of a Sent deletes Sent copy also

dougbrowning

Just has a user show me this.  

Open a sent survey - this creates a new copy

Save that copy as Draft

Delete the Draft and then it also deletes the sent copy.  I also see that it gets rid of the copy from sent as soon as you close the draft.

I am guess this is a bug?  User thinks their sent copy got deleted so it is confusing.

Thanks

The description above appears to be using 1.10 or earlier - is that right?

Its resolved / different (depends on your perspective) in 2.0 with the new edit functionality.

In 2.0 when you attempt to open a sent survey you get two choices 'Edit and resend' or 'Copy to a new survey'.

In the first case - 'Edit and resend' - if you do what is described above, you will see the survey gets moved to Drafts, and indeed if you delete the draft, you no long have a copy of it on your device. The original is still in your feature service, but you cant edit it from the Sent box any more. If you do need to edit sent surveys you should configure the Inbox.

In the second case - 'Copy to a new survey' - a copy is made in Drafts but the original sent survey remains in the sent box.
