Editor's Notes

  • #8 SPEAKING POINTS When examining customer requirements for content management solutions it often helps to separate the requirements of content contributors from content creators. Content contributors are concerned with desktop integration, meta-data management, version control and workflow to control document approval processes. Content consumers are more concerned with access to ‘content in the context’ of their work. Whether that be through integration with a business application or via a web site. The key is the word ‘context’.
  • #18 You can incorporate human workflow into your BPEL processes very easily. It&apos;s a powerful, fully-featured workflow engine which incorporates everything you need for human interaction. You can assign tasks to users and groups. You can define routing rules to say how the task should be passed around. Who should give approval? Does it need several levels of approval? Can the person currently owning the task decide who it should go to next? etc For very complicated routing rules, you can specifiy those in our rules engine. You can define escalation and delegation rules. For example, when you&apos;re on holiday, what should happen to tasks that are assigned to you? You can setup notification options, such as being alerted when a task is assigned to you, has been approved, completed, or whatever. And you can choose how you&apos;d like to be notified, by email, phone, SMS, etc. We supply an out-of-the-box worklist application to manage your tasks, add attachments, etc. You can customize this application or create your own since the workflow engine has a public API. You can auto-generate your tasks or create them using ADF components. You can also use Microsoft Excel to view tasks and take actions. With the abstracted identity management, you can plug in your directory store (OID, LDAP, etc) so that rather than duplicating data, we use your existing directory structure. And finally, there is an audit of all actions so you can view history, run reports, etc.
