Developing in a Collaborative Environment
Software AG offers a variety of tools and methods you can use to create a collaborative development environment in which developers can easily share and reuse assets.
A main tool for collaboration is
CentraSite, which operates as a shared database of metadata about assets that are stored in
Software AG Designer,
Integration Server, and
CentraSite. Business process developers can publish services, document types, and business processes from
Software AG Designer to
CentraSite, and can drag and drop these assets from
CentraSite into
Software AG Designer.
Task application developers can define child collaboration tasks and processes that help complete a parent task. Developers can configure a parent task so that:
When the task receives specific business data, it creates child collaboration tasks and assigns them to specific roles or users. The task application developer can configure the parent task to complete automatically when the collaboration tasks are completed.
A user who opens the task in his inbox can create child collaboration tasks and assign them to other users. When the child tasks are completed, the user can complete the parent task.
