   The forms are listed in ascending order by form versions. The list includes the following information:

   • Tag: whether a form version is tagged or not.
   • Description: a meaningful description of a form version .
   • Modified by: a user name or email address of a user who modified a form version.
   • Last Modified: when a form version was modified.
   • Created By: a user name or email address of a user who created a form version.
   • Created At: a day when a form version was created.
   • Built: this flag is set when there is a corresponding built form where the form developer has edited a form version and clicked Build in the Maestro editor and there is a Manager form version. In this case, if you use the Delete JM Form Versions functionality, described below, it will delete the built form and deleting the form design version will also delete the built version as well.

Otherwise, you need to open the form version in Maestro and build the TM Form Version of the form.

You can use this functionality to solve the following project issue. Each form you build needs an organization wide unique name in Manager.

If you delete a project, form design or form design version, it will also delete the published form, otherwise the published form is "orphaned". If you have access to the Manager dashboard, you can do it manually from there. However, this features allows you to do it straight from the Maestro dashboard.
