Customized InfoPath form

Question

I have a customized InfoPath form that I want to use as a Library. So I created a new Library, set the Allow management of content types to YES then selected the custom template. Now when I add a new Item is opens the form but when I fill the form and save it, It does not appear in the item list. How do I fix this.

Answer 1

Be sure to setup your submit data connection in InfoPath.

See the section on how to add a data connection and then for SharePoint library or list.
