Streamlined and efficient management of business activities is a popular corporate directive and a flexible and reliable workflow system is essential for success in meeting these objectives
The Elixir Workflow System is a feature-rich web-based environment that lets companies connect any number of people and processes into a specific business activity or project. Using pre-defined business rules, the Elixir Workflow System distributes, tracks, and manages the various tasks related to a project from discrete activities to approvals. Automated processes including those from other applications can be initiated as part of any workflow.
The Elixir Workflow System provides visibility into daily operations helping companies identify areas for productivity improvements. The system tracks and reports on the workflow by extracting information as various activities are completed in whole or in part. The system is configured based on user rights and preferences ensuring system security and process efficiencies.
