Allow a timeframe for references to review and update responses
It would be beneficial for Skyward's Fast Track module to allow applicant references a window of opportunity to update their responses, especially since the system has great limitations on choosing references and/or allowing HR the ability to manage the references in any way. We often receive calls from users who accidentally pressed enter and submitted the reference several questions short of completion, and currently have no solution, as once submitted, we cannot purge the reference. Quite often, if the applicant really wanted that person as reference, we have to walk the applicant through submitting another reference out to the same person under a different email address.
What I envision is the same ability that most other applicant tracking systems already offer - when the reference submits the questionnaire, there are prompted with a reminder that they can use the same link or login method to access/update the questionnaire until a date. I've attached a sample as attachment.

We would like to request that the 1-year setting minimum, for the electronic reference be removed to allow the applicant to submit a different reference should they choose to.

We would like to add to this and request that the reference restriction to "being locked for a 1-year period" be removed.
