Workflow Manager Features

Workflow automates processes.

Workflow automates document-centric processes, improving efficiency and repeatability of operations.

Document Locator’s integrated workflow is easily configurable so that routing and management options can be customized to meet the needs of specific business processes. The customizable step functions in the workflow manager enable modeling and automation of even the most complex business processes.

Administrators and authorized users can quickly create, manage, reuse, and support document workflows with sophisticated events and processes. For example, workflows can be configured to drive any number of parallel or serial process steps, they can include conditional steps, they can assign alternate users to task steps, and they can be managed across a team environment.
