Perfect complement to other AVEVA products
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Work Tasks primarily to implement custom processes on top of other AVEVA products, this is the extensibility layer for their other products, such as production management. We implemented of month processes as well as daily adjustments and others where the built in functionality doesn't quite meet our needs. We also implement miscellaneous manual processes in this tool, those that require some sort of integration or database access in the back end.
Pros
- Wysiwyg form editor
- Desktop and mobile display
- Extensibility with JavaScript and c#
- Web API calls
Cons
- Workflow editor user interface, a little clunky and has a learning curve
- Permissions model is complex
- Themes and corporate branding requires detailed css
- Upgrades require very thorough testing of developed artefacts
Likelihood to Recommend
Anything where form input is required, data presentation and custom interface screens, connected to a database or API backend.
Also good at process orchestration, where tasks need to be allocated and completed as part of a workflow, it supports delegation and escalation.
It does fit well tieing together other AVEVA products.
