Afternoon all
We've recently started looking into converting our many paper based forms into InfoPath forms, hosted on MOSS. Fortunately, a lot of InfoPath Forms Services limitations can be overcome one way or another, and we'll be using Nintex workflow as the workflow engine. One issue we foresee is security of forms. As forms need to be saved in a forms library, I'm assuming the person filling in the form needs contribute access to the library, and the approver would need contribute access to the workflow tasks list. The concern I have is who can read the forms once they're saved. Take an 'application for leave' for example. It's highly likely that whoever submits an application wouldn't want anyone else in the company to be able to read their leave request, so it should only be readable to them and their manager (and a group of people like HR) Audience targeting wouldn't really work, as it's not secure. Views could work, if there was a way to secure a view so that you can prevent people from choosing another one. I'm not sure if item level security permissions would work, and if you could set that up automatically in the workflow. I recall reading somewhere in the not too distant past about someone experiencing similar issues, but cannot for the life of me remember where it was. I thought it was on this list, but can't seem to find anything (I blame a HDD crash for that) Does anyone have any tips / suggestions on how to proceed? (We're expecting at least 30 forms to only be accessible by the submitter, approver and Group-X) Kind regards Nigel Hertz Software Developer | Information Technology Stockland Level 25 | 133 Castlereagh Street | Sydney NSW 2000 T: 02 9035 2617 | F: 02 8988 2617 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Stockland Notice: If this communication has been sent to you by mistake, please delete and notify us.
