I would like less navigation and more content in one page. Here are the direct
navigations that i would propose in the left hand menu:
Task list : shows 2 tables, the personal task list and the group task list. The personal
task list should be shown on top and only contains tasks that are assigned directly to the
authenticated user. From each task in the personal task list, the user should be able to
navigate to the task instance view to perform the task.
The group task list should show all tasks for which the authenticated user is in the
pooled actors. Note that the pooled actors list can also contain one of the groups for
which the authenticated user is a member. Also in that case, such task should show up in
the users group task list. Users should might be able to navigate directly to the task
instance view, but they should not be allowed to perform any operations on those tasks.
To do that, the user has to 'take' the group task into his/her personal task list.
'Taking' the task should be the only allowed operation on group tasks. That
prevents that multiple people start working on group tasks simultaniously.
Processes : Should display a list of processes similar to the current Find Processes menu
screen. By default, this screen shows only the latest versions of the processes in
alphabetical order. Users should be able to sort and filter the list. For each process,
the user should be able to start a new process instance.
Search : Should display a search screen with a form to start searching for tasks, tokens
and process instances. From many locations in the webapplication, there will be links to
this search page. E.g. in a task instance page you could add a link 'Show all tokens
for this process'. There are many such convenience links thinkable and they should
all point to the unified search page.
Reports : Should always display an overview of system-wide reports. How many total number
of instances. How many transactions per minute/hour/day, How many open tasks per user,
Avg time for task per user, ...
In case a process definition is selected, links to reports per process definition, should
be shown as well.
Admin : Groups all admin functionality. Currently I see 2 such functionalities.
Deploying a process as is already available. And viewing/managing the job-and-timer
queue. I think that both of these two functionalities can currently be easily combined
in one screen.
Logout
===============================================
Apart from those directly navigatable screens, i think that only 2 other screens are
needed: task instance view and process instance view.
