Workflow can be started from the email...the user is notified that there
is a task to be performed, double-click the attachment and it takes you
directly to the workflow screen (very cool)..

or you can use it as a regular client applications (just like Powerlink)
or from the Web (just like Netlink)


I don't remember if the software is in the CD's, but it is better if you
download the software from the support.infor.com page.

Sounds good, but I have to reiterate Weston's question:

>> How do you access these appl's?

Hi Weston,

Workflow is a very good tool, it can be used with Mapics or any
other
database like SQL, MS Access, etc.... for me is a complete new
'programming language' that allows you to setup the steps with
customized
screens and define any approval loop.

The main features that I found with this tool:

- You can use any file on the iseries (AS/400) not just Mapics XA
- Data is accesed just like in an RPG program, with 'chain'
'reade',
etc.
- Subfiles type of screen.. .very cool!
- Assign resources and expeditors
- Natural interface with Lotus Notes.. and I suppose with exchange
for
email
- Keeps a log of every 'workflow', so you can have any tracking
back in
history
- Graphical designer...(similar to visual basic)

Disadvantages:

- Users must be setup again...(it does not get user profiles from
iseries
or Active directory)
- Difficult to install.. but with external help this is not a
problem.

My experience with workflow was very good, in less than a week we
developed a complete workflow for 'Engineering change request',
with
multiple steps
to assign the 'Engineer'--> 'Mfg Engineer''--> Quality control.,
additional we developed some extra objects with browser to complete
the
project.

its in R6 as well.
There are three Workflow items:

How do you access these appl's?

Thanks
