Hello, at the moment I am gathering requirements for a newsletter system which should send personalized newsletters. I have a requirement where a provider has to approve a newsletter before it is send out.
This is perfectly solvable with activiti and I already downloaded an early beta and tried the technology. Very impressive.
I am using an RDF store to store all the information that I have. I also want to store all informations from activiti in this RDF store. Especially users, groups, and task. On my side it is planned to use Empire (http://github.com/clarkparsia/Empire) for mapping normal Java Beans via JPA into rdf storage. Unfortunately activiti is using ibatis which only supports relational databases.
Are there any plans to replace ibatis with JPA or is there an easy way to replace the relational repository with a semantic one?
Here is the whole use case:
P2 Approve user interaction
Summary: When the consultant wants to run or change an user interaction like sending a newsletter. The provider has to be informed by email and has to approve this action. The email contains 3 links:
approve user interaction change
approve user interaction change but add a comment and possible create a rule
decline user interaction change with a comment
Further he wants to see the expected goal results based on the last run user interaction. If this is not available the default example will be used for estimating goals.
It is possible to approve or decline a certain change or user interaction. A comment explaining this decision should be added. Afterwards the consultant will be informed by email about the decision. There can be default rules how to handle certain user interaction these rules can contain timing constraints like:
Always approve requests from Manuel after 24 hours
Always decline all other requests after 24 hours
If nothing happens the provider will get an automatic reminder about pending approvals.
The default rule is approve all user interactions.
Roles: Provider
Precondition:
User is logged in
User has the provider role
User interaction is not approved yet
Postcondition:
User interaction is approved and ready to run
