As a starting point, rows 57 -76 on this sheet - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13Xnb7j-xt0CZrgD9zRuH3OBX_bxR8FNl94F52Lom9gM/edit?usp=sharing. |

Presentation by Mike Gorell on plans for the workflow engine
Long term vision: integrate manual and automated functions through the workflow engine
Requires a message queue implementation for modules and manual to interact
Short term vision: deploy workflow engine, to-ap for manual workflows only
Does not require message queue. May be more doable by summer 2020
Message queue being worked on for data import, may affect what can be accomplished in workflow
RA does not have a lot of purely manual workflows; most accomplished by reports
There is some concern by RA that too much redesign will be necessary after 2020 if work arounds to workflow are implemented
Mike: some alternatives to workflow may not need to be changed, especially if not cross-module
Implementation of automated/module side of workflow more important to RA and ERM
RA should document examples of workflow uses
Priorities will be set for MVP
Manual fee/fine notice tokens questions from Darcy
what tokens are needed – review spreadsheet
Types of notices: notices of new fees/fines are most important; payment receipts only if requested
