Personally I would go with three staging forms.  Keeps the number of fields low 
and succinct to the web service you are consuming.  Putting everything on one 
web service/form to me would be increasing the potential for cross application 
contamination as well as creating possibilities for incorrect workflow based on 
the targeted application type.  I tend to rely on the KISS principle.  Keep It 
Simple Stupid.  :^)

Subject: ITSM Web services

Hi all,

We are integrating ITSM modules (incident, problem and change) with 
another Remedy system instance through web services.
The plan is to create a staging area in front of OOB integration forms.
Now, the question we are discussing and I would like to ask other 
people's opinion on is:

Would you consider creating just a single web service with one staging 
form behind for all modules using an attribute to distinguish which 
module the call relates to
OR
Would you mimic the OOB approach and create three web services with 
three separate staging forms (one for each module)?

What pros/cons can you think of for each of the approaches?
What other aspects would you consider to choose between the two?

Thanks
Jiri Pospisil
