Forms in Sharepoint list disappear
Some of the forms in sharepoint list disappear after submitting in InfoPath. Is it a server issue. I am beginner using sharepoint. Does anyone have an idea what might be the issue?
First, as a new person in SharePoint, you should not invest any time or effort in learning InfoPath. It is in extended-end-of-life. PowerApps is your friend.
If you have to use, InfoPath... Does the item ever appear in the list, or after saving the form, it never shows up in the list? How is the form published - to a list, a library, or as a content type?

- Thanks for the reply. The form is published to a list. All of the items appear in the list after submitting the form. However, occasionally, few items does not appear in the list. An email notification is sent to concerned person to take action when the form is submitted but the item disappears.
- If the form has saved to the SharePoint list, it's not an InfoPath issue. The only way for them to disappear is for it to be deleted, or possibly the view has a filter that is hiding some items. Check the recycle bin and see if you can find them there. Also, set up an alert so that you are notified if anything is deleted going forward. Lastly, verify your view doesn't have any filters that might be the cause.
