一种柔性审批流程模型

A Flexible Approval Process Model

为了满足大部分信息系统中审批流程灵活多变的需求,在抽取一些审批业务流程的共性后,建立了一个支持回退、跳转、流程变更等功能的通用审批流程模型.通过将流程模版和流程实例分离,使得模型能应对变更;通过将流程模版和流程实例拼接,使之能够展示流程的轨迹和流转动向;通过配置模型的各个构成要素,使之能够满足不同业务的个性化审批需求,从而具备一定的柔性.最后,以科研管理信息系统中项目立项审批为例,验证了该模型的柔性.

In order to satisfy the requirement of more flexible approval process which is demanded in most information systems, this paper extracted some features in common and established a universal approval process model that supports functions including rollback, skip and alteration. Mechanism of the model works as the following：through separating the templates and processing instances it makes the model available when alterations occur; through jointing the templates and processing instances, it is able to display the trajectory and circulation trend of the process; through configuration of constituent elements, it is able to meet individualized approval needs for different businesses, which means a kind of flexibility. Finally, the author presented an example of project approval in Scientific Research Management Information System to demonstrate that the model is flexible.
