Workflow applet

[Anonymous]

We are considering purchase and use of Formativ to develop a number of workflow applets.

One desired applet would be an approval form into which a user in the accounting dept. could enter information to be sent in a message for a manager’s approval. The message received by the manager would provide a radio box (e.g., Approved and Not Approved) and a Send button to automatically reply to the accounting dept. his chosen option.

Is this something Formativ is capable of, and if so, would you please provide a conceptual discussion of how this could be accomplished.

Thanks

Formativ is suited to this kind of simple workflow. Formativ 1.5, the current release, could be used to build this workflow. If you have development resources in-house familiar with VB development you could probably build this yourself using the example applets and Developers Guide as a starting point. Alternatively, you could contract the development work. If this option interests you, write to sales@advansyscorp.com.

Formativ 1.6, due for release within the next five weeks, makes it even easier to build this kind of workflow in a more integrated way. Depending on the size of your organization, you may be interested in beta testing 1.6 with the simple workflow you describe. Send an email to support@advansyscorp.com if you might be interested in pursuing this option.

Regards,
