Embedded HTML kicks Workflow directly!

Kyoto, Japan, October 7, 2013, Questetra, Inc., the global SaaS provider of Business Process Management (BPM), today announced that they have published the new version 9.7 of the cloud-based Workflow product “Questetra BPM Suite” on October 7, 2013. With the new version, ‘Application Form’ can be embedded in Web pages.

Questetra BPM Suite

“Questetra BPM Suite” is a Workflow product which makes you be able to handle your business data on the Cloud. It will contribute to enhancing internal control and operational efficiency. It has a great feature that you can modify the configurations with easy Drag & Drop operation for the business rule or business flow. You can continuously improve business flows complicated as such as Decision-making, Translating, or Complaint handling.

New Feature FORM START

In this v9.7, you can install ‘Application Form’ or ‘Inquiry Form’ on your Web site or blog page. The submitted application data or inquiry will be directly taken into the Workflow, and will be processed along the business rule that has been configured in advance. Although it has been available to start the processing automatically from the external system by using ‘API function’ so far, now you can connect the Workflow to your Web site or blog page easier. (This feature is a beta release for the time being. ‘File attachment’ is not available.

Other New Features

In the new version 9.7, the following features are added or enhanced.

Business Manual

Added a page to describe and edit the business manuals. Operators of the Process will be able to see “the Business Manuals” on the screen of Business Flow Diagram or Task Operating screens. It has been available to indicate manuals on the Operating screen so far, but this Business Manual feature is assumed to use for explanations on entire flow, etc..

In addition, together with release of this feature, hashtag (topic) on Business Model (Process Model) is available on the ‘Enterprise Social Networking’. It will help discussing on a whole Business Flow by putting Process Model ID (e.g. #m123), as well as putting Process ID hashtag (e.g. #p1234) to make communication on a project easier.

Data type Organization

You can set an allocation rule more flexible. Also, you can send emails to the Organization email address by Auto email transmission (Message Throwing Intermediate Event (email)). Including this Organization type, number of the Data type of the Workflow becomes 11 types (19* subtypes).

* String Type (single line/multiple lines), Numeric type, Select type (radio/check/select/search select), Date type (Y/M/D, Y/M, Y, M/D), Datetime type, File type, User type (select/search select), Organization type, Discussion type, Guide Panel type.

Auto Scripting

Auto-processing feature “Script Task” is newly added. Although it has been available to set Business data easily in “Service Task” so far, but now you can achieve more complicated data processing with ‘ECMA script’, a Script language made by incorporating parts that are common to JavaScript and JScript.

Future Works

Cloud Computing is now going into popularization phase. Especially in the SaaS field, “Switching from company-owned to per-use” is accelerating, not limited to workflow, in many computer systems such as e-mail, groupware, CRM (Customer Relationship Management). Questetra BPM Suite has been grown to be used by 4000 companies in 100 countries (including Free SaaS). In the next major version Ver10, we are planning to continue to enhance the ability to understand the processing performance and business progress more easily.
