Business processes can often benefit from additional functionality or added sophistication in user forms, which may be beyond the scope of the standard Metastorm BPM designer.
The SWiFT PowerTools module offers more familiar method of delivering that much needed extra functionality. The BPM developer can choose from a whole host of out-of-the-box extra functions and features via the Metastorm Designer Wizard. This avoids the use of external .Net technologies - shortens the development and deployment cycle and improves cost-effectiveness.
In addition, the SWiFT PowerTools Module positively encourages smart thinking and effective development of process flow and form design. Listed below are just a few of the many Key features and advanced functions available:
Our Charizma Interface Module extends BPM...
- Navigable Multi-Part Forms – Quick powerful semi-intelligent
multi-part forms developed direct from one single stage allowing
easy navigation between sections. The SWiFT engine recognises certain
key functions added using the BPM forms design wizard, and the appropriate
‘navigation’ buttons are auto-generated to suit the
form sequence and set-up.
- Multi-Lingual Designer – A comprehensive set of tools
to create a multi-language matrix with automatic extrapolation of
process names, for actions, stages, form field and button captions.
The system can be used for any mix of ‘Microsoft Platform’
identified languages.
- Report and Letter Generator – A simple built-in PDF
generator for ‘capturing’ and rendering reports or compiling
merged letter documents into PDF form, for viewing or printing directly
from the Client machine.
- Internal PDF Merge system – Multiple PDF documents
can be merged into one larger document for storage into DMS or directly
into an area on any accessible server folder.
- Cross-Process Child Forms – Seamless operational
integration between same or different ‘process’ and
map forms. Forms created as a part of any BPM process map can be
utilised (called) by any other process form. This feature promotes
a new more efficient way for forms development with the ability
to further reduce time, effort and duplications.
- Dynamic User Interface Headings – Using a simple ‘Grid’
mechanism, developers can ‘program’ each process to
present a different set of ‘To-Do and Watch List’ headings
and data to the User Interface, which is far more appropriate and
better assists the User in their daily operational activities.
• Independent Field Attributes – An easy method of
independently resetting a large selection of attributes for each
and every field on a form.
- Independent Field Attributes – An easy method of
independently resetting a large selection of attributes for each
and every field on a form.
- Sizable Data Grid Columns – Grid column margins can
be ‘grabbed’ and moved by the user to suit their needs.
• Graphical Data Charts - Chart styles from a list of over
50 different options can be selected and combined to present the
data in the most effective way.
- Independent Field Attributes – An easy method of
independently resetting a large selection of attributes for each
and every field on a form.
- Forms to the Internet – Internet data-collection forms can be designed with Metastorm’s Designer, and deployed to any Internet web-site.
