About This Feature
Overview
Other Settings is part of the check-in workflow in WPS Smart Forms on Windows. It is used to manage additional settings for a check-in form before the form is finalized or published. From the form editor, you can open this area, adjust related options, preview the result, and confirm the changes.
Core tasks include:
- Open the Other Settings entry: go from the form editor into the check-in module and open Other Settings.
- Adjust related options: update the available settings in the panel as needed.

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Provides an Other Settings entry inside the Smart Forms check-in workflow, where you can open the settings panel, adjust options, preview the result, and confirm the changes. | Microsoft Forms provides a settings pane for response scope, start and end dates, response acceptance, and email notifications for forms and quizzes. | Google Forms lets you manage responses, turn on email notifications for new responses, stop accepting responses, and set a close date or response limit. | Notion Forms lets you configure questions, required fields, descriptions, sharing scope, anonymous responses, and submission behavior in the form builder. | Adobe Acrobat Sign Web Forms focuses on web form publishing and signing flow configuration, including email verification, CCs, additional participants, and save-progress options. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: the entry is built directly into the Smart Forms check-in workflow, which helps editors complete setup, preview, and confirmation in one path. | Compared with WPS: settings are designed for general form collection and response control rather than a dedicated check-in setup entry. | Compared with WPS: the product emphasizes response management and collection limits, so check-in scenarios rely on general form settings. | Compared with WPS: customization is broad and database-centered, but check-in workflows need to be structured through the form design itself. | Compared with WPS: the product is more focused on signing-oriented web forms and approval flows than lightweight daily check-in setup. |

Overall Conclusion

Other products also provide form settings, but their focus is generally broader response collection, database workflows, or signing processes.
