  • certified for cluster environments
  • scalable
  • fast defintion of workflow logic, without graphical UI
  • optional individual layout and application logic for each workflow
  • customizable mails as text or MIME
  • mails can contain data from the current workflow, so that a user is able to see what the workflow is about
  • mails can be delayed until changes are replicated to all servers, so that an editor always works on the most recent document
  • not a black box, very detailled logging enables an admin or dev to quickly find the cause for hanging processes

Platform
  • Engine runs on Domino 7 and 8, on Windows, Linux, OS/400 and other platforms
  • workflows run on Notes 6, 7, 8 and in the browser

Basic Workflow Logic
  • automatic check if an editor is available based on out-of-office status or calendar entries
  • automatic determination of substitutes
  • rerouting of a running workflow allowed for certain users

Process steps
  • useful options like preventing editor from editing the document, preventing print or copy actions, forcing comments
  • automatic determination of next editor based on any criterias, for example roles or job titles
  • determination of next editor based on data of the current workflow document, useful if names are defined manually by a user
  • automatic handling of groups
  • mutiple editors may approve parallel or one after each other
  • optional escalation if a step is not finished in a certain amount of time
  • optional consultation, so that an editor can "break out" of the current process to consult one other person

  • mails can contain pure text or HTML
  • mails can contain a link to the workflow document
  • data (fields) in the workflow document can be altered while processing a step

Connection between steps
  • branching between steps by simple yes/no descisions or flexible rule sets
  • branching based on one or more fields of the current workflow and even by results for formulas
  • optional branching not only inside one workflow, but to another workflow, enabling the possibility for generic sub-workflows

Development
