Hi,
I'm looking around for products that can serve as a workflow management system for our business. We're primarily interested in the creation and management of workflows and having the system execute and track workflow requests. The user experience will be externally developed, primarily as web-based MVC applications. We want our UI applications to integrate with the workflow management system to initiate workflow requests and have the workflow management system perform callbacks to the UI application, which will host the document or information that will be made visibile to the users and approvers.
So looking at Micorosoft Dynamics AX 2012 it seems most (if not all) of the workflow mangagement capabilities are there. It has the editor to create workflows, has approval of workflows, events, etc.
But I'm not finding much as to whether or not we can replace the client forms with our own UI web-based applications and drive user experience from them in place of the built-in Dynamic forms. The impression I get is this isn't the intent of Dynamics and the client forms in Dynamics are required. Is this true? Dynamics is pushed more as an ERP vs. a workflow management system but since it does have workflow management I'm just not sure.
Also, what specifically defines a "workflow document" in Dynamics? Can it be a url to an external resource? Or must it be information captured and persisted within Dynamics?
Thanks!
