The following sections identify differences in user experience
between IBM® forms and the FileNet® P8
system. They also detail how to develop FileNet
applications for use with IBM forms.
Administrator experience
Administering IBM Forms with the FileNet P8 system is virtually identical to administering FileNet eForms.
Application developer experience
Several changes have been made to the FileNet P8 system to accommodate IBM forms. These include changes to the form template and layout properties in the workflow process.
End user experience
When IBM Forms and FileNet P8 systems are integrated, the end user experiences no change in functionality, but may notice some differences in how pages are displayed and navigated.
Form designer experience
Designing forms for use in FileNet P8 requires that you include navigation buttons within the form, mark form items as “Public”, and save the form template in a specific format.
