Work Flow Functionality

Work Flow Management

Have you ever wanted a database change on your AS/400 to notify one or several users?

This could be a simple notification, or requirement for action.

For example the addition of a new customer by Customer Service could automatically notify the Credit Department to set appropriate credit levels. At the same time, Logistics could be alerted that shipments will start to a new location.

All of this can be achieved using DataThread ™ within minutes of installation on your AS/400.

• AS/400 based and using the available functionality of the operating system, DataThread ™does not require any modification to existing applications
• Highly configurable, able to identify at the file and field level, auditing, notification and signature requirements
• Allows user to electronically sign once tasks have been completed
  • Signature can be captured at time of change or grouped for signing at a later time
  • Multiple signatures can be required for the same change, allowing for work flow management and oversight.
  • Signatures requirements can be generated all at once, or sequentially as each department completes their task.
• Provides user-friendly review capabilities through electronic files, hard copy reports, and on-screen reports.
  • A user or department can review open action items and close them when a task has been completed.
  • Users can be reminded of open signatures by electronically generated Emails or AS/400 messages.
• Infinitely scalable to the largest AS/400 environments
• Can start other programs based on Boolean evaluation of the changed data.
