We have been developing solutions using the 2007 Microsoft Office system since attending the Office System Developers Conference in March 2006. The first project we took on was to generate Business Documents using data from a Line of Business application using an add-in running in Microsoft Word. This project relies heavily on new XML features in Microsoft Word, such as RibbonX extensibility, custom task panes and Content Controls, giving the End user a great integrated experience. The Add in saves the users about 10 minutes for every document they generate adding up to hours a day for the organisation involved.
The same Line of Business application makes use of the Out of the Box Workflow features in Microsoft Word and SharePoint to manage these generated documents, keep track of approval, printing, sending and optionally the registration of required replies. On top of this the management of the organisation is able track the overall workload and throughput using the built in Reports and some additional Custom reporting built using SQL Server Reporting Services and the new integration model with Microsoft Office SharePoint Server
Office Business Applications are an emerging class of applications that helps businesses unlock the value of their line-of-business (LOB) systems and turn document-based processes into real applications. |
