Adobe® LiveCycle Workflow

Adobe LiveCycle Workflow provides a complete process management solution for streamlining document-centric processes and integrating people, systems, documents, business rules, Adobe Document Services, and Web services.

By combining a unique component-based workflow engine with the Adobe Intelligent Document Platform, your organization can benefit from fully integrated processes that:

bulletStreamline human-to-human (H2H) workflows
bulletIntegrate data to and from any internal or external system
bulletBuild composite applications that link people, systems, business rules, Adobe Document Services, and Web services
bulletMeasure and manage process performance with Business Activity Monitoring (BAM) capabilities
bulletOrchestrate all Adobe Document Services—document control and security, process management, collaboration, and document generation—into end-to-end workflows

Integrate processes with an end-to-end solution

Adobe LiveCycle Workflow leverages the power of Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) to deliver complete end-to-end process automation solutions. The combination of Adobe PDF and the powerful workflow engine in Adobe LiveCycle Workflow enables organizations to automate both simple and highly complex business processes. The solution supports both online and offline interactions, persistent document control and security, a robust PDF or HTML user interface, and integrated paper-to-digital interactions.

Design and model processes graphically

With the Adobe LiveCycle Workflow intuitive design tools and QPACs, IT professionals and business analysts can visually assemble complete workflows without coding, dramatically reducing the cost, time, and risk of deploying new workflow applications. An easy-to-use rules wizard enables process owners to define business rules to help their organizations quickly get automated processes up and running.

Integrate seamlessly with core systems

Adobe LiveCycle Workflow integrates document-centric processes with any enterprise or legacy business system, including your enterprise resource planning (ERP), customer relationship management (CRM), document management, directory server, database, or Web service. This seamless integration with your core applications translates to processes that are free from organizational barriers, even when the flow of work spans workgroups, departments, or enterprises.

Deploy processes with intelligent forms

End users can participate in processes using HTML or Adobe PDF forms, which facilitate data capture, decrease cycle times, and improve data quality. With intelligent forms, your customers and constituents can interact with processes online or offline with PDF forms that they can save and print. Administrators can set up secure communications with digital signatures and access rights, and they can automate the conversion of forms and documents from paper to electronic PDF files.

Manage workflows and optimize processes

Use the highly intuitive portal to initiate new workflows, sort, manage, and respondto work assignments, and search for existing items across any transaction. A management dashboard provides you with the means to monitor business activity and reports. With alerts, reminders, calendars, and escalations, organizations can support responsive, around-the-clock operations by developing processes that ensure that work items are dealt with in an efficient and timely fashion.

Scale to meet changing business requirements

The flexible Java™ 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE)-based architecture of Adobe LiveCycle Workflow scales both horizontally and vertically to suit an organization’s performance and availability needs. In addition, Adobe LiveCycle Workflow can be deployed in a clustered or fail-over environment to enable mission-critical applications.
