- Flow Control: Flow control gives you a variety of options, such as checking any condition / status, looping through lists and handling specific exceptions.
- E-Mail Templates: With email templates, it is easy to send any message to the various people in a business process. These templates can also be customized in your VisionX application.
- Notifications: Just wait until certain data has changed, or other processes are in a specific status, then perform further steps automatically.
- Client Actions: The workflow engine can send client call actions, such as notifications, to logged in users.
- Sub Worflows: Group their activities into sub-processes, to reuse functionality and make processes clearer.
- REST: With the workflow engine you get REST functionality to access, change or delete any busienss data via REST
- To-Dos: The workflow engine also allows you to create todos that are immediately visible for business users in the application through Push messages. The to-do management screen is in VisionX flexible designable.
Start Workflows in VisionX Applications
If you already run your applications on VisionX, you can simply integrate your workflows into your VisionX application. You can just add new workflows to respective screens. For example, you can give users the option to send an email from one of your application screens.
Monitoring
Maintain an overview of processes and steps at all times.
Not sure why a workflow was triggered? Or maybe you noticed unexpected behavior in your live system? With the workflow log you can view all active, paused, and old workflows at a glance.
The workflow log gives you a comprehensive view of all workflow steps, and you can even stop or debug selected workflows.
Debugger
Simulate all variants of your workflow step-by-step with real data.
.
Not sure if the created workflows work? No worries. With the workflow debugger, you can test each one of them.
The debugger gives you full transparency on whether a workflow runs successfully or not. The log output for each workflow step provides actionable insights into why something might not work yet.
Custom Functions
Simply add new workflow functions via the settings screen.
