Custom Flex Like BPM Tool
IMPORTANT: We would like to have similar tool as JBPM (free JBoss based ) but it may be too complex for a limited time and budget. Therefore, please read all the details given below and propose your own solution that may close to desired version.
DETAILS:
Tool must simply let users to draw BPM (or BPM like) workflow diagram in flex environment as similar to JBPM that is based on the java. Save them in BPM format and also able to load previously saved documents.
Only one additional (custom) feature is expected from this flex based BPM (or BPM like) tool which is ability to add (drag & drop) some custom properties from right panel on to main workflow components that are placed in center drawing area. You are free to use JBPM (actually drools-guvnor) designer api, add desired right properties panel and combine all as a one tool if you like to.
As a summary Custom Flex based BPM tool must let users to:
*Tool will have three panels as follows:
->Tiny left panel that contains BPM like components such as fork, join, task etc ...
->Large center drawing area to place the components through drag and drop
->Right property screen where properties will be loaded from webservice (we will provide that)
* Draw simple BPM like diagrams (start action, end action, decision , progress boxes if possible swimlanes and expressions)
* Save and load diagrams in compatible BPM format (2.0, 1.0)
* Drag and drop some properties onto diagram boxes from right panel
Please note that the property moved from right panel to center area must disappear from right panel and property in workflow box can be move back to property winnow. In another words, the relation and drag and drop feature must be bidirectional between center drawing area and right property panel. You can add static properties (only two attributes, property id let say 211 and textural description like "red car") to test your solution for time being.
The additional details are available if we agree on. Please find following web site as a start or reference point:
