> This is the Markdown of a Backed Help Centre page, https://admin.backed.giving/help/administrator/applications/faq-applications.md. Every page is listed at https://admin.backed.giving/help/llms.txt.

> This page uses Backed's default terms, such as Funding Round and Application Template. An organisation may rename them, so read each as your organisation's own term if you've renamed it.

Labels that name `Application` use your organisation's own term if you've renamed it.

## What is the difference between withdrawing and deleting an application?

`Withdraw Application` moves it to `Withdrawn`: it can no longer be changed, but its history stays
readable. `Delete Application` removes it and cannot be undone.

## Can I fill in an application for an applicant?

Yes. Use `Act as an Applicant` on the application, or `Complete Application on Behalf` on the grant
round to start a new one for them. See [An application](an-application.md).

## Does the applicant see my changes when I edit their application?

When you use `Edit as Admin`, the applicant is not notified. The application's history records the
change.

## How do I let an applicant fix a submitted application?

Use `Unlock with message` with a deadline, or `Request more information` with a Supplementary
Information template.

## How do I move an application to another applicant?

Select `Transfer Ownership` on the application and choose an applicant whose registration has been
approved.

## Can I change which columns the list shows?

Yes, for yourself from the list. Your organisation's defaults are set under
`Settings > Saved views`.
