Forms Services make it easy to collect and validate information that comes across your desk using tools you're already familiar with.
Browser-based forms with InfoPath Forms Services
InfoPath Forms Services, which is part of Office SharePoint Server 2007, extends your reach to organizations that do not use Microsoft Office InfoPath 2007 by
allowing you to fill out forms in a common browser or even a HTML-enabled mobile device.
With Office SharePoint Server 2007, you can:
- Deliver your forms with a consistent user experience regardless of where they are used. Office InfoPath 2007 uses built-in controls to deliver easy-to-use forms with predictable behavior, mouse-over tips, and built-in data validation.
- Streamline your business process applications through InfoPath forms, which collect and validate the data driving your workflows
- Use built-in collaborative workflow templates to streamline approval, review, and archiving processes. Or you can create your own custom workflows
with Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer 2007 to build interactive collaborative applications. These applications will automatically route documents for
reviews or approval, send e-mail notifications to participants, and archive documents to meet retention policy requirements.
Integrated workflow and document information panel from within Microsoft Office client applications
With Office SharePoint Server 2007, you can initiate and interact with workflows right from within your Microsoft Office application. You can also collect and
validate important document metadata via the document information panel. Office SharePoint Server 2007 helps you:
- Collect important metadata defined by the Windows SharePoint Services library via the document information panel. The metadata may include information such as workflow status, content deadline, routing information, or other properties related to the documents lifecycle.
- Create a custom document information panel that contains the rich capability of an InfoPath form, including external data connections, data validation, conditional formatting, business logic, and other controls.
- Deploy document templates with advanced document management capability built directly into a document in a way that is easy and straightforward for document authors.
- Initiate a workflow or set a workflow status right from your familiar Microsoft Office application such as Microsoft Office Word 2007.
Custom workflow design with Office SharePoint Designer 2007
Office SharePoint Designer 2007 makes it easy to add business logic to sophisticated no-code composite applications with the rules-based Workflow Designer. With the Workflow Designer tool in Office SharePoint Designer 2007, you can use drop-down lists and check boxes to identify the events that trigger a workflow. You can then specify the actions and responses that follow and even identify the conditions under which other workflow events will occur.
