Introduction to Workflow in MOSS 2007
Hi,
Earlier today, I presented a MOSS session at the Office System User Group here in Israel. In this session, I introduced the Workflow world in MOSS and the major possibilities/implementations. There is no argument that Workflows are a key feature in SharePoint 2007 but unfortunately we see a lot of mix up about when and how to use it. The attached slides from this session cover some problematic topics that you should definitely cover before entering the WF world in MOSS:
- Fundamental Concepts and Architecture - Collaborative Processes against Transactional Processes
- WF in Office System 2007 – Architecture of Workflow Hosting with WSS
- Workflow Scenarios (OOTB Workflows) – Administrating, History Tracking & Reporting
- Share Point Designer WF support - Rule-Based "No Code" WF
- Extend via Code – Visual Studio 2005 Workflow Designer
- Workflow Authoring Tools - Compression between developing with SharePoint Designer and Visual Studio 2005
Enjoy,
Adir Ron.
