Replace 12 MS apps with a single ASP.NET application
<p>I wonder if you could give your opinion on something I am working on right now?
 We have 12  MS Access applications that look quite similar in terms of data and functionality: each app allows 12 practices to capture data for services they provide  to patients. The practices cover physical therapy, orthotics, speech and language , social services , etc. 6 are for inpatients and 6 for outpatients. </p>

<p>I built a  MS SQL database to replace the 12 apps  and respective 12 databases. The model looks pretty good and I think it will scale well.</p>

<p>Now  I am working on designing an asp.net web forms app to replace the above 12 apps.  My dilemma is: how should I approach this challenge?</p>

<p>In the current version of the apps, each data entry screen looks almost the same amongst practices; there are a few cosmetic changes and fields may be laid out differently but the result is the same: allow the user to enter service codes for work performed on their patients.</p>

<p>So, say that for each app, we have a page called charges.aspx which will look almost the same per practice.</p>

<p>My question is: should i build 12 similar pages, one for each of the old apps, since the data entry is very similar? Or, maybe, generate the UI, previoulsy defined in sql using something like a template for each practice?</p>

<p>Any suggestions would be welcome!</p>

<p>Regards,</p>
