Work Management Overview

Work management refers to a set of features within Socotra designed to support users with their work.

For example:

  • Recording and reviewing human-authored contextual data associated with quotes, policies, and other entities

  • Being alerted to important system events

  • Having direct access to data that relates to their work

  • Organizing and tracking important tasks that require attention

  • Defining relationships among workgroups and other parts of the organization

Work management is supported by these features:

  • Diaries - Human-written textual information with history that can be associated with quotes, policies, and other entities

  • Tasks - These are concrete units of work for individual users. Tasks might include property inspections, reviews, and approvals.

  • User Associations - Relationships between users and entities such as accounts or policies, and the specific role a user has in that relationship

  • Workgroups - Hierarchical groupings of tasks, users, and entities such as quotes and policies

  • Auto-Assign - Automatically assigns tasks and creates associations.

  • Workplans - Templates that automatically create tasks and assign tasks in response to system events

The following features are under development:

  • Notifications - Alerts users to important events triggered by internal or external activity
