Design And Implementation Of Equipment Procurement Management System Based On Workflow

Digital campus construction needs a lot of information systems to support. Andequipment procurement management system is one of them. To solve the problem thatprocess of equipment procurement management department in a university is easy tochange, the system needs that process can be configurable and privileges can be dynamiccontrolled. When a process changes, the system will operate well only by modifying theconfiguration on the condition that functionalities never change.To achieve the goal, this paper mainly does the works as below: first, this paper getsthe functional requirements and non-functional requirements through analyzing actualrequirements in great detail. Then it designs a workflow-based management systemstructure that uses MVC design pattern and pinpoints that the combination of functionality,workflow control module and privilege control module is the way that system operates. Soa simple workflow control module and a privilege control module are designed to supportthe operation of system. In the process of operation, the workflow control module ismainly used to automatically control and manage processes according to definition. Theprivilege control module is used to cooperate with the workflow controller to achieve thecontrol of dynamic privileges.The equipment procurement management system based on workflow in this paperhas a low degree of coupling, good flexibility. Now it has been used into trial operationand takes good reflection from customers. It has achieved the desired effect. Itsimplementation offers a choice for other similar procurement management system. And themethod based on workflow technology provides a reference to other information systemwhich has a flexible process in the future.
