This tutorial shows how to build a custom workflow using the wizard provided by SharePoint Designer 2007. en Thu, 23 May 2013 21:40:07 GMT Thu, 23 May 2013 21:40:07 GMT Rev9 Re: Creating Custom Workflows with the SharePoint Designer 2007 Great question era.  You can use InfoPath to add forms to each step in the workflow process.  These forms can be accessed from the browser or in e-mail as part of the workflow.

I have one more, Let's say that i want my customers to create their own work flows without having Ms Office (Sharepoint designer or InfoPath). ie, do we have API's supporting the workflow that enables creating workflows on the fly. For ex, can i create an application for my customers by which they can create their workflow from my application...?? Is this Possible??

Hope u got my question! Pls revert back if u dont!

You can build workflows without SharePoint Designer, you can build them in Visual Studio too.  The workflow in Office SharePoint Server is based on Windows Workflow Foundation.  Check out this link for some more info.

I downloaded the train version for sharepoint and noticed there wasnt "create a workflow" when i click FILE, then NEW.

So i registered it and has the same problem.


Then i uninstalled sharepoint and downloaded microsoft office sharepoint designer and i still cant create a workflow.


What exactly do i need.


All i want to do is create a workflow that allows a user to create a page and edit it.

I have a business need to create an XML file for data in SharePoint List. Once this XML file is created it needs to be transfered every day at 5 pm to another server (Clarity Server) for keeping track of hours worked on a particular requests. Then once a month the data needs to be moved back from Clarity Server to SharePoint Server for reporting purpose. Can this be done with Custom Workflows. Thanks in advance for all your help and suggestions.
Best Regards,
Shalini
