Planning and <strong>Designing</strong> the Application<br />
Example: TaskSpace<br />
Creating the user interface is one of the biggest challenges in solution development. TaskSpace,<br />
because it is composed of forms, provides flexibility in user interface design. The following is an<br />
example of a TaskSpace screen showing a view of a case folder:<br />
Work with the client to define a consistent approach to style. We recommend writing a Style Guide<br />
that specifies standards for colors, skins, columns, labels, search criteria, sort order, and any items<br />
pertaining to the UI. A detailed specification takes time to write, but it saves time during the<br />
implementation phase of the project. Keep it simple and do not over-engineer.<br />
Note: Design the Style Guide as a structured template to ensure that you are gathering the appropriate<br />
information. Also use this template to show the client how things will be implemented and to track any<br />
configuration changes. The result is to create a consistent look and feel for the application.<br />
Example: BAM<br />
With BAM, the first step in the planning is to identify the users; that is, the roles of the individuals who<br />
need access to the dashboards. For example, one role can be the operational manager who watches<br />
each case or process instance to ensure that it meets the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for<br />
process timing and quality. Another role can be the Line of Business (LOB) executive who tracks<br />
process performance against aggregate business goals. These two roles require different dashboards<br />
that contain different reports.<br />
Following is an example of a template for capturing this information:<br />
