edpem Update 4.4: Greater interactivity, scalability and clarity

Release 4.4 transforms edpem from a pure monitoring tool to an interactive control center. Here is an overview of the most important new features:

1. active workflows: From observer to actor

The most significant innovation in edpem 4.4 is the integration of user-controlled workflow actions. Users can now initiate processes in edbic or other backend systems directly from the monitoring interface.

• Context-sensitive buttons: Different action buttons appear depending on the status or attribute of an object.
• Seamless interaction: Sending forms in edpem triggers automated processes in the backend.
• Practical example: When a ship docks at the port, the user can "start customs clearance" directly. edpem triggers the process in edbic, and after a successful check, the status is automatically updated in the port's system and in the edpem view.

2. clustering: ready for enterprise requirements

To ensure a high level of reliability and performance, edpem now supports clustering.

• Scalability: The system grows with your requirements and distributes loads efficiently.
• Reliability: The network of several nodes ensures high availability for monitoring critical business processes.

3. references: An overview of the entire chain

The new reference function provides a standardized method for monitoring related documents and their dependencies.

• Instead of isolated data points, you get a comprehensive overview of the entire relationship chain.
• Links between different business objects are displayed transparently and logically.

4. view conditions: Personalized data filtering

With the new view conditions, data views can be controlled with even greater granularity. Similar to search filters, conditions can be integrated directly into the view.

• Attribute-based filters: You can use view conditions to apply filters to a view, similar to a search. When monitoring invoices, for example, a view condition can only display invoices from 2025 onwards.
• Role-based visibility: You can create multiple views with different conditions so that different users see different sections of the data.

5. optimized installation

Time is money - that's why the installation process has been fundamentally revised. Setting up edpem is much faster and smarter in version 4.4, which massively reduces the time-to-value for new projects.

 

Conclusion: Update 4.4 makes edpem smarter and more robust. In particular, the linking of monitoring and active process control through workflows closes the gap between analysis and action.
