Forms and workflows are closely related, but they solve different parts of a business process. A form collects information, while a workflow determines what happens to that information next.
What Does a Form Do?
A form collects structured information from a person. For example, an expense form might collect an employee, amount, date, category, receipt, and business purpose.
What Does a Workflow Do?
A workflow determines what happens after a submission. An expense request might move from the employee to a manager, then to finance, and finally to completion.
Why Combine Forms and Workflows?
A form by itself collects information but may still leave employees responsible for manually forwarding it. A workflow without a structured form may not collect information consistently.
Form + Workflow = Structured Business Process
