For example, if I want people to be able to send me an email requesting time off, could I have a template that they fill in that automatically has a number of headings such as date range, type of leave, brief description, etc.
A. Not with GroupWise natively. There may be third party utilities out there that can do this however they are usually not free. There might be some solutions out there that our creative readers have come up with. Anyone got a clever idea for this?
For a solution within the Groupwise Windows Client, probably the best solution is Advansys Formative (http://www.advansys.com). If you wish to do something like forms and have them processed as a workflow, a great solution would be Novell Vibe On-Prem. Vibe also has integration with Groupwise, as well as Document Management, Blogs, Wikis and many other features. Both solutions are pretty well priced.
