This technology generally relates to methods and systems for constructing workflow applications, and more particularly to methods and systems for providing a framework of configurable components, services, and modules that are reusable for construction of complex workflow applications in order to reduce volume and redundancy in manual coding requirements.
For many large organizations, many business tasks are most efficiently handled by using workflow applications that are designed for specific purposes and/or for solving problems. In many instances, these workflow applications are quite complex and therefore require a significant amount of effort to construct. Typically, such a workflow application is constructed by manual coding, which often requires many hours of effort to be expended by humans.
In many instances, teams within an organization build solutions with similar behaviors and capabilities repetitively from scratch. Reuse of software may not be extended across portfolios, because there are few incentives to develop reusable software. Lack of reusability, configurability, and/or self-service capability may lead to long lead times with respect to market cycles, highly variable user and employee experience, and proliferation of disjointed design, architecture, and tooling practices.
Accordingly, there is a need for a framework of configurable components, services, and modules that are reusable for construction of complex workflow applications in order to reduce volume and redundancy in manual coding requirements.
The present disclosure, through one or more of its various aspects, embodiments, and/or specific features or sub-components, provides, inter alia, various systems, servers, devices, methods, media, programs, and platforms for methods and systems for providing a framework of configurable components, services, and modules that are reusable for construction of complex workflow applications in order to reduce volume and redundancy in manual coding requirements.

The task to be performed may include a displaying of an application programming interface (API) that is designed to facilitate saving and retrieving data based on the plurality of criteria.
The method may further include displaying, via the GUI, a checklist that includes information that relates to an amount of progress with respect to a completion of the task to be performed.
The method may further include displaying, via the GUI, a workflow modeler that includes drag-and-drop icons that are usable for constructing the application.
The task to be performed may include making a determination that relates to at least one from among a commercial banking function and an investment banking function.

Referring to
The method for providing a framework of configurable components, services, and modules that are reusable for construction of complex workflow applications in order to reduce volume and redundancy in manual coding requirements may be implemented by a Configurable Workflow Application Construction (CWAC) device 202. The CWAC device 202 may be the same or similar to the computer system 102 as described with respect to
Even further, the application(s) may be operative in a cloud-based computing environment. The application(s) may be executed within or as virtual machine(s) or virtual server(s) that may be managed in a cloud-based computing environment. Also, the application(s), and even the CWAC device 202 itself, may be located in virtual server(s) running in a cloud-based computing environment rather than being tied to one or more specific physical network computing devices. Also, the application(s) may be running in one or more virtual machines (VMs) executing on the CWAC device 202. Additionally, in one or more embodiments of this technology, virtual machine(s) running on the CWAC device 202 may be managed or supervised by a hypervisor.
In the network environment 200 of
The communication network(s) 210 may be the same or similar to the network 122 as described with respect to
By way of example only, the communication network(s) 210 may include local area network(s) (LAN(s)) or wide area network(s) (WAN(s)), and can use TCP/IP over Ethernet and industry-standard protocols, although other types and/or numbers of protocols and/or communication networks may be used. The communication network(s) 210 in this example may employ any suitable interface mechanisms and network communication technologies including, for example, teletraffic in any suitable form (e.g., voice, modem, and the like), Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTNs), Ethernet-based Packet Data Networks (PDNs), combinations thereof, and the like.
The CWAC device 202 may be a standalone device or integrated with one or more other devices or apparatuses, such as one or more of the server devices 204(1)-204(n), for example. In one particular example, the CWAC device 202 may include or be hosted by one of the server devices 204(1)-204(n), and other arrangements are also possible. Moreover, one or more of the devices of the CWAC device 202 may be in a same or a different communication network including one or more public, private, or cloud networks, for example.
The plurality of server devices 204(1)-204(n) may be the same or similar to the computer system 102 or the computer device 120 as described with respect to
The server devices 204(1)-204(n) may be hardware or software or may represent a system with multiple servers in a pool, which may include internal or external networks. The server devices 204(1)-204(n) hosts the databases 206(1)-206(n) that are configured to store forms, templates, data dictionaries, business rules, and task management data that relates to workflow applications at various stages of construction.
Although the server devices 204(1)-204(n) are illustrated as single devices, one or more actions of each of the server devices 204(1)-204(n) may be distributed across one or more distinct network computing devices that together comprise one or more of the server devices 204(1)-204(n). Moreover, the server devices 204(1)-204(n) are not limited to a particular configuration. Thus, the server devices 204(1)-204(n) may contain a plurality of network computing devices that operate using a master/slave approach, whereby one of the network computing devices of the server devices 204(1)-204(n) operates to manage and/or otherwise coordinate operations of the other network computing devices.
The server devices 204(1)-204(n) may operate as a plurality of network computing devices within a cluster architecture, a peer-to peer architecture, virtual machines, or within a cloud architecture, for example. Thus, the technology disclosed herein is not to be construed as being limited to a single environment and other configurations and architectures are also envisaged.
The plurality of client devices 208(1)-208(n) may also be the same or similar to the computer system 102 or the computer device 120 as described with respect to
The client devices 208(1)-208(n) may run interface applications, such as standard web browsers or standalone client applications, which may provide an interface to communicate with the CWAC device 202 via the communication network(s) 210 in order to communicate user requests and information. The client devices 208(1)-208(n) may further include, among other features, a display device, such as a display screen or touchscreen, and/or an input device, such as a keyboard, for example.
Although the exemplary network environment 200 with the CWAC device 202, the server devices 204(1)-204(n), the client devices 208(1)-208(n), and the communication network(s) 210 are described and illustrated herein, other types and/or numbers of systems, devices, components, and/or elements in other topologies may be used. It is to be understood that the systems of the examples described herein are for exemplary purposes, as many variations of the specific hardware and software used to implement the examples are possible, as will be appreciated by those skilled in the relevant art(s).
One or more of the devices depicted in the network environment 200, such as the CWAC device 202, the server devices 204(1)-204(n), or the client devices 208(1)-208(n), for example, may be configured to operate as virtual instances on the same physical machine. In other words, one or more of the CWAC device 202, the server devices 204(1)-204(n), or the client devices 208(1)-208(n) may operate on the same physical device rather than as separate devices communicating through communication network(s) 210. Additionally, there may be more or fewer CWAC devices 202, server devices 204(1)-204(n), or client devices 208(1)-208(n) than illustrated in
In addition, two or more computing systems or devices may be substituted for any one of the systems or devices in any example. Accordingly, principles and advantages of distributed processing, such as redundancy and replication also may be implemented, as desired, to increase the robustness and performance of the devices and systems of the examples. The examples may also be implemented on computer system(s) that extend across any suitable network using any suitable interface mechanisms and traffic technologies, including by way of example only teletraffic in any suitable form (e.g., voice and modem), wireless traffic networks, cellular traffic networks, Packet Data Networks (PDNs), the Internet, intranets, and combinations thereof.
The CWAC device 202 is described and illustrated in

Further, CWAC device 202 is illustrated as being able to access a forms, templates, and business rules data repository 206(1) and an application-specific task management database 206(2). The configurable workflow application construction module 302 may be configured to access these databases for implementing a method for providing a framework of configurable components, services, and modules that are reusable for construction of complex workflow applications in order to reduce volume and redundancy in manual coding requirements.
The first client device 208(1) may be, for example, a smart phone. Of course, the first client device 208(1) may be any additional device described herein. The second client device 208(2) may be, for example, a personal computer (PC). Of course, the second client device 208(2) may also be any additional device described herein.
The process may be executed via the communication network(s) 210, which may comprise plural networks as described above. For example, in an exemplary embodiment, either or both of the first client device 208(1) and the second client device 208(2) may communicate with the CWAC device 202 via broadband or cellular communication. Of course, these embodiments are merely exemplary and are not limiting or exhaustive.

At step S404, the configurable workflow application construction module 302 analyzes the criteria provided by the user. Then, at step S406, the configurable workflow application construction module identifies component software modules that are usable for satisfying one or more of the criteria. In an exemplary embodiment, each individual criterion is analyzed, and for each criterion, a determination is made as to whether a component software module already exists and therefore can be used in combination with other software modules to construct the overall application.
At step S408, the configurable workflow application construction module 302 transmits information that relates to the construction of the application to the user. In an exemplary embodiment, the information may include an identification of the appropriate component software modules determined as being usable for constructing the application, and the information may also include an explanation as to which user criteria are satisfied by the component software modules and which user criteria may require additional coding. In an exemplary embodiment, the information may be displayed via the GUI.
At step S410, the configurable workflow application construction module 302 provides several tools via the GUI that are usable for constructing the application. These tools are discussed in more detail below with reference to

In an exemplary embodiment, when a user provides input data via the GUI that relates to one or more business rules by using the configurable business rules component, the configurable workflow application construction module 302 may apply the business rule(s) to the inputted data and then output a result thereof via the GUI. The configurable business rules component externalizes business rules into a visual user interface, thereby facilitating transparency and adjustability with respect to the business rules.
In an exemplary embodiment, the checklist manager may be used to display a checklist that includes information that relates to status and/or progress toward completion with respect to a task that a user is performing. In this manner, the checklist manager assists users by tracking progress with respect to a task.
In an exemplary embodiment, the configurable workflow component may be used to display a workflow modeler that includes drag-and-drop icons that are usable for constructing an application. In this manner, the configurable workflow component delivers complex workflows quickly and safely while minimizing a need for manual coding effort.
In an exemplary embodiment, when a user inputs criteria via the GUI that relate to the task to be performed, the configurable case ingestion component ingests the inputted criteria, and then creates a new case therefrom.
In an exemplary embodiment, when a user provides a request for information that relates to a data definition via the GUI, the data dictionary component retrieves the requested information from a data dictionary that is stored in memory. The data dictionary component serves as a single source of true information for all metadata.
In an exemplary embodiment, the configurable data services component displays data service application programming interfaces (APIs) that are designed to facilitate saving and/or retrieving data based on user inputs and/or criteria.
In an exemplary embodiment, the configurable portal component acts as a single point of entry for users using a common entitlements structure and large-scale menu navigation.
In an exemplary embodiment, the task manager component is designed to present a respective task to a corresponding user, and to provide user configurability with respect to task routing, task counts, task organization for teams, and data segregation.
Accordingly, with this technology, an optimized process for providing a framework of configurable components, services, and modules that are reusable for construction of complex workflow applications in order to reduce volume and redundancy in manual coding requirements is provided.
