FlowRunner - Task Alerting

One of the features not found in other business management suites is the ability to alert a user about the arrival of new tasks. FlowRunner server does this with a regular web browser, without any ActiveX controls, plugins, or Java Applets.

As new tasks arrive a user might not refresh his task list to see if the state of his inbox has changed. With alerting functionality turned on he will get notified from a friendly popup box that will show up on his desktop. A hyperlink will bring him to the new tasks. This is a great time-saving technique that helps maximize work efficiency and ensures that all work items get attention in a timely matter.

  • Alerting is a perfect feature for users who use the system infrequently
     
  • Flexible architecture can be extended for other integrated features or external processes
     
  • Does not require any downloaded client side components
     
  • Works even if the browser is minimized
     
  • User interface can be customized

 

Email notifications

Users can receive email notification when they receive a new task. The message text is completely configurable and can include instance data.


Highlights

  • Configurable notification text may include any instance data
     
  • The configuration is per user step. Different steps may have different text
