• Powerful Workflow Engine Define, visualize, and create suitable change processes using the powerful, easy to use, TechExcel ServiceWise workflow editor. Define transitions, business logic and field-level data privileges using a simple graphical tool.
• Definable Fields and Field-Level Security All fields and pages are customizable using a simple GUI tool to ensure organizations are tracking and analyzing relevant information. TechExcel provides an out-of-the-box solution template that can be completely modified or extended. Permissions may be defined for each field to control user access throughout the entire process.
• Auto-Routing Automatically route change requests to the appropriate manager, workflow state or group. Routing rules may be configured on categories, user-defined fields, or a combination of fields.
• Events for approval and task scheduling Create review tasks, testing tasks, and approval tasks throughout the lifetime of any change request. Events may be required at defined intervals, or can be used to schedule additional work tasks on-the-fly. Events are very useful for managing work tasks across multiple teams that relate to a single change request.

Numerous notification rules may be configured based on categories, fields, time, data changes or a combination of the previous factors. A complete record of all email communication is stored.

• Knowledge View and Document Storage Detailed documents of any type may be stored along with a change record. In addition, documents may be created from standard document templates to create a uniform style for test cases, design, back-up procedures, or any other necessary documentation required in the change process.
