A system and method is presented utilizing a set of software tools for the graphical definition of top-down workflow process models. The present invention has three main components: the process designer (300), the process server (500), and the process clients. The process designer (300) allows users to define the business processes from the top down without programming. The process definitions are made up of components, such as tasks and subprocesses. Tasks in the present invention incorporate all GUI panels necessary for an end-user (602) to complete the task. Events link the process model. Process models also include roles, end-users (602) , business logic, and other components. Adapters allow business data and logic external to the present invention to be incorporated into the process model. The process model definitions are then installed on the process server (500), which presents the tasks to end-users (602). End-user (602) access and perform tasks through the process clients.
