Systems and Methods for Generating a Configurable Workflow for Application Packaging Jobs
First Claim
1. A method for generating a configurable workflow for application packaging, comprising:
- receiving input from a user interface by a packaging application configured to manage an application packaging job;
creating a plurality of workflow states based on at least the received input, each workflow state associated with a particular step in the application packaging job;
associating at least one action with at least one workflow state based on at least the received input, each action defining a transition from its associated workflow state to a target workflow state; and
associating an assignee type with at least one action based on at least the received input, the assignee type defining at least one assignee that may assigned to the application packaging job for the particular action.

Abstract
A system and method for generating a configurable workflow for application packaging jobs are disclosed. A method may include receiving input from a user interface by a packaging application configured to manage an application packaging job. The method may also include creating a plurality of workflow states based on at least the received input, each workflow state associated with a particular step in the application packaging job. The method may further include associating at least one action with at least one workflow state based on at least the received input, each action defining a transition from its associated workflow state to a target workflow state. Additionally, the method may include associating an assignee type with at least one action based on at least the received input, the assignee type defining at least one assignee that may assigned to the application packaging job for the particular action.

11. An information handling system, comprising:
-
a processor; a memory communicatively coupled to the processor; and a tangible computer-readable medium communicatively coupled to the processor, the tangible computer-readable medium having stored thereon a program of instructions operable to, when executed by the processor; receive input from a user interface; create a plurality of workflow states based on at least input from a user based on at least the received input, each workflow state associated with a particular step in the application packaging job; associate at least one action with at least one workflow state based on at least input from the user based on at least the received input, each action defining a transition from its associated workflow state to a target workflow state; and associate an assignee type with at least one action based on at least input from the user based on at least the received input, the assignee type defining at least one assignee that may assigned to the application packaging job for the particular action. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A program of instructions embodied on a tangible computer-readable medium, the program of instructions operable to, when executed:
-
receive input from a user interface; create a plurality of workflow states based on at least input from a user based on at least the received input, each workflow state associated with a particular step in the application packaging job; associate at least one action with at least one workflow state based on at least input from the user based on at least the received input, each action defining a transition from its associated workflow state to a target workflow state; and associate an assignee type with at least one action based on at least input from the user based on at least the received input, the assignee type defining at least one assignee that may assigned to the application packaging job for the particular action. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
