    Best practice to create Infopath form with workflow, subsite or list?

     

    I need to create several InfoPath forms with workflows.  Should I use different subsite for each form and workflow. Or I can put them in one subsite? If I put them in one subsite, any concern of workflow interference? What is the best practice?

    Thanks.

     Personally I don't know of any best practice. Several things come to mind.

    A site is built around a purpose or theme i.e. HR, Sales, Marketing, IT

    What's the purpose of the forms? Do they all fit under one category or theme i.e. HR.

    I think it's best to think in terms of growth. Once you get one form, others are normally wanted.

    As an example

    Site is HR (theme)
    Each form has its own form library i.e. Holiday, Leave of Absence, TOIL, Staff Overtime

    Each workflow is attached to a required library.

    If you make your forms/library consistence if look and feel, users pick it all up very quickly.

    This way if you want a change to 1 you're not affecting others by accident. All this allows you to learn and progress your own skills and development.

    Remember this: what you design and how initially is invariable not how people use It!
