Workflow automation

With the Business Rules Engine, or “workflow automation,” you can automate standard recurring tasks on your site, such as multilingual communication, granting and revoking access, truck call-up, synchronizing information with other systems, etc.

Define what event and what conditions must trigger a certain action in the highly configurable Business Rules Engine and automate your flow.

Workflow automation makes all the Peripass modules work in tandem with your own logistics process. Do you need to grant a driver access to your site immediately after registration? Or do you only need to grant access after call-up? The decision is up to you.

With the simple, 3-step system, the possibilities are endless: “when X happens, under Y conditions, do Z”. So you should also definitely consider integrating your existing hardware with the Peripass YMS, to elevate your automated processes to a new level.

Automation is something anyone can start doing. You don’t need to know coding, and you don’t need to wait for a software development process. Making changes to your automatic processes is also fully in your own hands. After you decide what you want to automate, building your own workflow is easy.

Optimise your logistics flow by defining the possible active workflows on your site. An example of such a flow is shunter drivers moving empty trailers to loading docks, where truck drivers pick them up once loaded. Based on these predetermined flows, you create a set of triggers and actions. All workflows can be configured in your business rules engine.

You simply define what action happens after:

1. an asset’s status changes (e.g. “empty” to “loaded”)
2. an asset’s location changes (e.g. from “expected” to “dropped off at a parking spot”)
3. when a task related to an asset is finished (e.g. trailer was moved from the dock to a parking spot).
