IMPROVEMENTS RELATING TO GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACES

摘要

A system for supporting distributed interaction with a user during a workflow process is described. The system comprises a centrally stored graphical representation of the workflow process. A plurality of users located remotely from the centrally stored representation and related to each other in a user hierarchy each have access to a version of the representation. The system further comprises referral means provided within each version of the representation to generate a referral message. The referral means is arranged to send the message to a reviewer in a next higher level in the user hierarchy. (Figure 1)
