BACKGROUND

[0002] Various business processes in an organization may involve contribution of a number of people for initiation of projects, approvals, or reviews to manage flow of tasks. These processes may demand change with their proprietary systems and data architecture to adapt them to change in resources, people, and procedure who may be employed with advanced technological solutions. The need to make such processes easily adaptable to meet changing needs in business models is indispensable. Long and complex workflow solutions, once created, are difficult to modify and they are also incapable of keeping pace with the speed at which the technology advances. Typically, many organizations have dynamic workflow needs. However, if the workflow system itself is not dynamic, it would be challenging to adapt to the changing workflow. There can be multiple problems faced by an organization when it comes to automating business processes. The major shortcoming is that at any time a process changes, extensive efforts are required along with additional resource consumption in terms of moulding or re-moulding the workflow system. There are many systems for managing the workflows. Some of the prior art references are given below:

Furthermore, the method includes a third step to perform the work required by the project request by assigning one or more projects to one or more collection/preservation teams based on input received from the discovery coordinator. Moreover, Project manager may provide project checklists for different states of a given project for example, at the end of the project. Also, a checklist may ensure that an assigned task is completed according to the checklist specified by the project manager.

[0004] EP1825364A2 discloses a method for automation of a process. The method includes a first step to store a library of process on a computer system. In addition, each of the processes in the library comprising an indication of tasks to be carried out in the process.

Also, the interface comprising an indication of the determined tasks, an expected status of each task, and an actual status of each task. Also, process validation engine determines the next step/task and moves it to resource's Dashboard with the appropriate priority order given the real-time information. Also, automatic process application to unexpected problem occurrence to conform to risk and management escalation plans not guess work which leads to failure and law suits.

In addition, the configuration web-based system includes a deployable workflow engine capable of being integrated with an application server. Further, the configuration web-based system stores modelled process routing definitions, predefined routing rules, routing types and other workflow process-related information at a storage medium. Furthermore, the configuration web-based system determines an order in which scheduled instances of activities are routed and enacted for automating the workflow process. Moreover, the configuration web-based system includes an execution platform. Also, the execution platform engages with the deployable workflow engine to create a configurable workflow application by generating customized data definition fields and process-related metadata information. Also, escalation flows are useful in scenarios where a step has to be completed within a given SLA. Also, if there is a breach in the SLA, then the administrator can also model an escalation flow for that step, in which case the item will be escalated from the defaulted step to another step as modelled by the administrator.
