Workflow Engine embedded into other systems

Embedding workflow engines into business management systems can enhance their process capabilities, reduce development costs, and shorten system implementation cycles. the integration interface is as follows:

• · Login authentication interface: single sign-on method to access the workflow engine system.
• · Organizational interface: organizational data in other systems, such as departments, personnel, roles, positions and other information can be read through this interface.
• · Permissions interface:control the permissions for process initiation and management through permission interfaces.
• · Form Interface: seamless integration with business data is achieved through the form interface.

The steps of embedding workflow engine into business management system is as follows:

• · Create a database tablespace and user in the data where the the business management system is located and execute the workflow engine installation SQL script.
• · Copy the files under the workflow engine version project to the application published by the business management system.
• · Modify the target project configuration file according to instructions.
• · Configure the database connection pool.
• · Start the workflow engine, visit the license code generation page, send the machine code returned from the page to the account manager of HUIZHENG by mail, and copy the provided license file to the WEB-INF\license folder.
• · Implement the interface, including the organization interface, the designer verification interface, and implement the notification message sending interface, the process entry implementation class, the form data analysis interface, the database operation interface encapsulation, the extended function interface according to actual needs.

The step for establishing a process service tenant is as follows:

• Step 1. Open tenant space
• · Create new database in tenant initialization.
• · After the tenant initialization is completed, if the tenant needs to synchronize the organization, carry out the full amount of organization synchronization.
• Step 2. Customize business process
• · Customize the business process needed for the application in the tenant space (created in step one).
• · Customize the nodes, routing, and other configuration of the process.
• · Use process design tools to debug and release processes for application use.
• Step 3. Front-end organization integration
• · Organizational adaptation and initialization.
• · Single sign-on integration.
• Step 4. Invoke the process service interface
• · The workflow engine provides a RESTful framework interface, using HTTP as the communication protocol client to send requests to the service side through post 2, using json format data to the client response data.
• · Each user which access workflow engine need a secure accessToken, the user accessToken must be requested along with other parameters to the server, accessToken expiration time can be configured.
