Today a growing number of users interact with many enterprise systems including CRM, SCM and HR to facilitate key business processes. Most often, organizations resort to paper based forms and processes. Though, simple to implement, paper forms result in inefficient process, duplicate data entry and significant storage and retrieval costs. Some organizations have explored electronic forms using technologies such as HTML. These technologies typically result in increased implementation, maintenance and training costs.

SAP and Adobe Systems partnered together and created SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe. This product enables businesses of all sizes to develop interactive, digital forms that can be directly integrated into business processes.
