# SharinPix Form In Progress

## Overview

**SharinPix Form In Progress** allows users to start filling a form in web mode and save the current state of the form. After saving the form, a Form In Progress Record is created on Salesforce where the user can either complete the form and submit or continue filling the form and save. Upon submission, the Form In Progress Record is converted into a Form Response Record.

**Prerequisites**

Before using the **SharinPix Form In Progress** , ensure the following:

* The SharinPix team needs to activate the **Create Form In Progress On Salesforce** flag in your Organization Settings. Please [contact SharinPix Support](/documentation/getting-started-with-sharinpix/how-to-contact-support.md) to have this done.
* Users must have the **SharinPix Forms** **Admin** or **SharinPix Forms User** permission set assigned. For more information on these two permission sets, check [SharinPix Permission Sets](/documentation/access-and-security/sharinpix-permission-sets.md).
* The lookup relationship is set up, as detailed in [the next article](/forms/salesforce-integration/sharinpix-form-in-progress/setup-custom-lookup-for-sharinpix-form-in-progress.md). This enables users to view related Form In Progress records in Salesforce.
* You have the **latest** **SharinPix Package Version** Installed. Refer to [*this documentation*](/faqs/how-to-update-sharinpix-package-from-the-appexchange.md) to update your package.

To see a record's related Form in Progress records in Salesforce, make sure the lookup relationship is configured, as explained on [Setup Custom Lookup For SharinPix Form In Progress](/forms/salesforce-integration/sharinpix-form-in-progress/setup-custom-lookup-for-sharinpix-form-in-progress.md).
{% endhint %}

Upon Save, a Form In Progress Record is created on Salesforce and can be accessed as follows:

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Warning**

If the tab is closed without pressing the Save button, all progress will be lost. The SharinPix Form should be saved or submitted.
{% endhint %}

The Form In Progress Record can be accessed from the Form Template Related List or from the Record Page where a custom lookup has been set up. From here, the form can be completed, saved, and submitted. Upon submitting the Form, the Form In Progress Record is deleted, and its corresponding Form Response Record is created. The PDF URL of the partially filled form is also available from here.
