Abstract
A solution for managing a multi-site project is provided. In particular, a set of configuration records, each of which defines a unique workflow activity, is used to generate a workflow for a site in the multi-site project. To this extent, the workflow includes an activity record that is created based on a configuration record that defines a corresponding workflow activity to be performed for the site. The workflow also can be generated based on one or more condition configuration records, each of which defines one or more conditions related to a workflow activity. Data fields and/or values for the activity record(s) can be obtained from project and/or site information in addition to the configuration record. In this manner, the invention provides a flexible, comprehensive solution for managing a multi-site project.
