Good day @jpmhuls - 


From here:


 


If your farm uses a subscription license, then you must specify assigned use when publishing workflows and forms in accordance with subscription licensing terms.


 


Assigned use options are as follows.




  • Development: Intended for the development phase; the workflow or form does not operate on or affect any business outcome or data outside testing and development. Watermarks appear on development workflows and forms as well as on email messages sent by workflows. (Form preview omits the watermark.)


    Example: Running an expenditure approval workflow generates a request for purchase of a notebook computer and that request is approved, but no purchase occurs because the workflow is being tested.




  • Production: Intended for the production phase; the workflow or form operates on or affects live business data.


    Example: Running an expenditure approval workflow generates a request for purchase of a notebook computer and that request is approved such that the notebook computer can be purchased.

Thank you @Nintex_Sam,


Having both publishing options on a acceptance (/devolopment) environment got me a bit confused, especially when development publishing the form did update the list item on the acceptance/dev site. This bit of detailed info (also the test watermark on emails) I would like have seen in the Help documentation on publishing a form/workflow as well.
