<font face="Arial, Helvetica" size=3>Greetings Workflow/WebFlow
Developers,<br>
<br>
Are you aware that the Spring ASUG (2002) is quickly approaching?
This conference will be held May 12 -15 in Anaheim (think Disneyland!).
(For more conference info, go
to</font><font face="Arial, Helvetica" size=3 color="#0000FF">
www.asug.com</font><font face="Arial, Helvetica" size=3>.) Last year, at
the conference in Miami, there were about 7000 attendees. We hope
to top that number this year, but to do that, we need your help.
<br>
<br>
First off, have you considered giving a presentation for the
Workflow/WebFlow track? There are many reasons to present at ASUG
conferences. At the Spring Conference, you will receive a
complimentary registration if you are a speaker. But beyond that,
there are other benefits to presenting at ASUG: challenging yourself,
receiving industry and peer recognition, and knowing you have given back
to the community which strives to support you in your day-to-day
activities. I strongly encourage you to consider this
opportunity.<br>
<br>
The Workflow/WebFlow Board will be meeting to review topics for the
Spring Conference. I have listed some of the topics
below. If you are interested in volunteering to speak at the
Spring Conference, please send mail to

<br>
Thank you for your attention,<br>
Sue<br>

Selection for Workflow/WebFlow This was a very successful session
presented about 2 years ago by Tom Walker. This presentation should
give attendees both an overview of how to determine if a process is
‘workflow-able’, but also the underlying reasons for choosing processes
for workflow. <br>

Standard Workflow Templates This session would ideally have 2
customers presenting. They should tell the audience how to select
an appropriate standard template, when to use standard templates or not,
fit/gap analysis, and time to implement.<br>

Capture - we had envisioned having 2 sessions on this topic. One
session which would have 2 customers showing how Workflow/WebFlow
improved their business processes, and one session on ‘how-to’ develop
metrics for value capture. <br>

to Workflow/WebFlow - This ‘kick the tires’ session provides a general
overview of Workflow/WebFlow, and is a great way for customers who do not
yet have workflow implemented to see what it can do.<br>

for Authorizations and Security with WebFlow This area is always a
