Hi Kenan,
You can submit the forms directly to a SOAP service or email them and
use the POP3 Adapter to receive them in BizTalk. Each way has its own
benefits and drawbacks, but if you design your solution well and map
at the port level you should be able to support either / both. I've
done this and it's been pretty good. I actually really like the
SharePoint integration of BizTalk via the Adapter (though it takes
some getting used to, see my blog post here for more info:
http://www.novaenterprisesystems.com/Blog/post/Using-the-Sharepoint-Adapter-in-BizTalk-2006-R2.aspx
).
It is totally OK to just submit via SOAP and you can even show
InfoPath the URL and it will import the schema for you to build your
form with. Your big questions will involve where you want to place
logic: in the form or in the service. A great example would be an
approver, this may (and probably does) depend on who is filling out
the form. You could either get this via a SOAP lookup on the form or
in BizTalk via an Orchestration. The big driver here will be if your
forms need to be filled out / submitted asynchronously (like expense
reports, which most people like to fill out on the airplane /
train).
Feel free to ask any other questions.
Kind Regards,
-Dan
