Confirmations v/s Notifications on Gravity Forms

Confirmation

This is a message from the system to the user (member), when a form is completed and submitted.  

In this example the Voting Form simply thanks the member for their vote. 

Notification 

This is an email that is sent out when a form is completed and submitted. A notification can go to anyone (Member, President of the Board, Membership Chair, Social chair). You can have multiple Notifications and thus each email can contain information specific to the person receiving it.  In this example the Voting Form sends an email to the clubs admin and the League of Women Voters who is counting the votes for the clubs elections. 

On a different but related topic: If you are using a form to bill members please remember that an authorize.net feed must be set up for each form implemented, see Authorize.net Integration
