Sharing

When you create a new record, by default you are the only user that has access to that record. You can create drafts and keep them private until you are ready for them to be shared.

Share Groups and/or Users that are a part of a workflow will automatically be shared forms as they are assigned a step in the workflow.

Once a record is shared, it can no longer be deleted but can be obsoleted and a user or share group can be halted from seeing any future changes.
