I need to put together a system that involves recruitment consultants
completing a form notifying placements that they have made, managers
authorising these form, and finally accounts staff importing the data
into an accounting package to generate invoicing. I am considering using
Infopath to achieve this, however I am a bit confused as to how the
authorisation by manager step of the process could be achieved. I have
read that there is no workflow built in to the product, will Infopath do
what I want, and if so, could you outline for me the best way to
structure things.

Thankyou,
Paul Webster

Hi Paul,

You can maybe start looking in the InfoPath - BizTalk direction

Paul,

There was a great webcast on signing of InfoPath forms several months
back.

Unfortunately I couldn't find it  today at
http://www.microsoft.com/events/AdvSearch.mspx and then selecting
InfoPath as product and selecting on-demand webcasts.

It is possible it has been removed. Somebody from MS might have a
direct link?

As Franck said, BizTalk might be the solution for the workflow aspects
but it's a product that takes some mastering.
