  • Patent number: 5848271
    Abstract: A new computerized information flow technology is provided where information in an organization may be logically and automatically routed through a predefined sequence of activities to users who need the information. A user selects an activity from a list of available activities revealed by the computer system of the present invention. Upon the user completing the activity, the computer system selects an event associated with the activity. The event then performs a decision making process to determine which next steps are to be logically selected based upon predefined conditions set in the computer system and the information input by the user. The next steps determine the subsequent user or users responsible for performing a next activity (task) in the predefined sequence of activities. The computer system of the present invention then adds a message, representative of the next activity, to a subsequent user's or users' To Do List.
