v7 FreeBalance Help

Overview

Based on a finite state machine specifically defined for a process or document type, the use of a Workflow Engine address the flow of the documents or processes to the users. The finite state machine that can be modified according to the customer particular needs (e.g. level of approvals required for a Purchase Order), also validating the User Permissions to perform an activity without the need to include this validation as part of the business logic components.
 
The Workflow Engine communicates with the Access Rights component since the Workflow Engine must ensure that the user has the proper access rights to perform the Transition or when the task must be assigned. The Internal Notification Message System is also considered as the communication channel between the Workflow Engine and the users, notifying about task assignments or task current status.

Through this, the FreeBalance Accountability Suite provides:

• Ability to manage state in a multi-step workflow process.
• Provide a simple user interface to support articulating and changing workflow.
