WORKFLOW BEST PRACTICES

[Mark Pyc]

I guess this gets into the world of demarcation disputes. If you have a
situation where the WF developer creates a method as a wrapper for a
function but asks a more qualified developer to deliver that function than
the statement could hold true. It really depends on how many people you have
to change the Workflow lightbulb.

On the whole though I believe that the inherent logic of a Workflow and the
common need to pull apart the standard system (looking for event trigger
points mainly) requires a strong developer regardless of how much code they
cut.

Have fun,
Mark
