In breaking down a project, you may write pages of task descriptions (which probably no one would read) and sweat over task assignments to the right team members. Who's to do what, and when? Use a standard business process diagram to sort it out visually. Workflowmatic comes with a free and easy-to-use business process designer for you to design your work processes.

Visually specify who will participate in the work process by Pools and Lanes . Place Tasks in Lane to specify the person who is responsible for a specific task. Connect tasks by flow to define how your work process flows.

Explain what needs to be done in task by documentation. Write detailed procedure using a tailor-made procedure editor. Follow through with the task-level checklist.

You can place a decision box (gateway) in Lane to specify who needs to make a decision and use flow to show possible options to choose from.

Publish your work process design to Workflowmatic execution engine for use with just a few clicks.

Create an instance of the process(workflow) you previously defined and assign team members to the workflow. Team members will be assigned tasks and notified in the course of the workflow.

Know exactly how to complete your work from the detailed task description. There may be step-by-step procedures available for reference.

Workflowmatic will automatically assign tasks to the right team members upon completion of the previous tasks. No more forwarding emails.

You can update your task status by posting follow up. You may also attach files as needed.

Dashboard shows the overall team progress in a single page. You can see which tasks are on or behind schedule. You can also review what you have done today, yesterday or this week.

When you identify a workflow bottleneck, just rearrange or amend the tasks in business process designer visually.

Publish the latest version of your process design to Workflowmatic execution engine. To avoid confusion, all running workflows will keep using the previous version of the process. Any new workflow created after the publishing will base on the revised process.
