This is what formsets were made for.

If they are different types of forms, you cannot use a formset.

In that case, just test whether all forms are valid. If they are all
valid, save/process the forms. If not, re-render the page with the
bound forms and display the errors.

Eg

def myview(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form_a = FormA(request.POST)
form_b = FormB(request.POST)
form_c = FormC(request.POST)
if form_a.is_valid() and form_b.is_valid() and form_c.is_valid():
form_a.save()
....
return HttpResponseRedirect(...)
else:
form_a = FormA()
form_b = FormB()
form_c = FormC()
return render(...)

-------thank you TOM---
  when I submit my forms .. no field is validated


.......view.....



def enregistrer(request):
        if request.method == 'POST':
            emet_form = EmetteurForm(request.POST, prefix = "emet")
            des_form = DestinataireForm(request.POST, prefix = "des")
            fich_form = FichierForm(request.POST, prefix = "fich")
            if emet_form.is_valid() and des_form.is_valid() and fich_form.is_valid():

They are not getting validated, or validation is failing?

Also, it looks like you are using model forms. You can get rid of all the for,.cleaned_data.get lines and just use:

if emet_form.is_valid() and des_form.is_valid() and fich_form.is_valid():

      emet = emet_form.save()
      des = des_form.save()
      fich = fich_form.save()

thank you very much .. how is the template for such a view ... I've put each form in a form tag like that

<fieldset>
              
            <fieldset>            
                <legend>EMETTEUR</legend>
                    <form action=" " method="post">  {% csrf_token %}
                        {{ emet_form.as_p }}
                        <input type="reset" value="effacer" /> 
                   </form>
               </fieldset>

           
            <fieldset>            
                <legend>DESTINATAIRE</legend>
                    <form  action=" " method="post">  {% csrf_token %}
                        {{ des_form.as_p }}
                        <input type="reset" value="effacer" /> 
                   </form>
               </fieldset>

      
           <fieldset>            
                <legend>FICHIER</legend>
                    <form  action=" " method="post">  {% csrf_token %}
                        {{ fich_form.as_p }}
                        <input type="reset" value="effacer" /> 
                   </form>
               </fieldset>

             
                    <form  action="{%url 'formulaire.views.enregister'%}" method="post">  {% csrf_token %}
                     <input type="submit" value="enregistrer" /> 
                   </form>
          


</fieldset>

Only one <form> can be submitted at a time, so if you want all three
Forms to be submitted at the same time, they must all be inside one
<form>.

 I tried it .. but it is only the first form (   {{ emet_form.as_p }}    )  that is saved..


<form  action="{%url 'formulaire.views.enregistrer'%}" method="post">  {% csrf_token %}
                        {{ emet_form.as_p }}
                        {{ des_form.as_p }}
                        {{ fich_form.as_p }}                     
                   <input type="submit" value="record" />
         </form>

Please stop replying directly to me - I am subscribed to the list,
this is how we started talking, I do not need an additional copy in my
inbox.

So, why is it only the first form that is saved? What happens in your
view that causes only the first form to be saved?

Add debug logging and find out.

Excellent.

Thanks for the share.

How backward compatible is it?

I think that is a pretty old feature. It's documented at least since django 1.3!!
