  • Publication number: 20240119373
    Abstract: The present disclosure is related to computing devices, systems, and methods for a new task-engine system that connects to a variety of task-interaction providers, enabling a user to use any one of multiple task-interaction providers to create and complete tasks within a workflow. That is, the connection to a variety of task-interaction providers allows a user to interact with the workflow through any of the task-interaction providers and create and/or complete any number of tasks in the workflow. The task-engine system may also update the creation and/or completion of a workflow task in all other task-interaction providers, such that all users may be aware of, or notified of, the current state of the workflow through any of the task-interaction providers.

  • Publication number: 20230267397
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for a synergetic, multi-interface workflow designer: a visual tool that enables the design, building, and use of high-level processes and standard-configuration workflows among multiple users with varying technical capabilities on multiple systems. For example, it enables a line of business user to design and create a high-level process on a first designer interface. The process and its data are received by a second designer interface, which translates the process and data into a standard-configuration workflow. A workflow designer may access the second designer interface to create, refine, and finalize the standard-configuration workflow based on the data from the first designer interface.

  • Patent number: 11663543
    Abstract: Workflow sharing system and method are disclosed that allow a workflow server to provide a shared workflow, wherein the shared workflow generates at least one manifest, wherein the at least one manifest comprises a third-party interaction field, a credentials field, an input parameter field, and an output parameter field, wherein the workflow server receives a request for access to the shared workflow and transmits the at least one manifest of the shared workflow in response to the request for access to the shared workflow, wherein the at least one manifest comprises an acceptance requirement of the third-party interaction field, the credentials field, the input parameter field, and the output parameter field, wherein the workflow server receive consents of the acceptance requirement of the at least one manifest; and allows access to the shared workflow in response to the received consent of the acceptance requirement of the at least one manifest.
