Abstract

In an embodiment, a method manages data integrity of an electronic form. In the method, a request from a client device for access to the electronic form is received. Access is provided during a session to the electronic form to the client device, wherein the electronic form is configured to receive user input into fields of the electronic form via the client device, the user input comprising one or more field values corresponding to the fields of the electronic form, transmit the user input to at least one computing device, and transmit a publication request message to the at least one computing device, the publication request message indicative of an end of a session. The user input is received. During the session and before receiving the publication request message, the one or more field values of the user input is updated in a pre-publication database. The publication request is received, and in response to receiving the publication request message, a post-publication database is updated with the one or more field values stored in the pre-publication database according to a mapping of pre-publication database fields and post-publication database fields.
