Overview
Follow the steps below to access and configure the ProcessMaker Mobile app. This configuration should be done on each mobile device where the ProcessMaker app is used. The ProcessMaker Mobile app can be configured to use a workspace in any ProcessMaker 3 server. To try out the app without installing a ProcessMaker server, the initial screen provides a button to create a new account in the Enterprise Trial Server, and the mobile app automatically configures the device to use that new account. The same workspace on the Enterprise Trial Server can be used on multiple mobile devices, so it is only necessary to register once. To create users, modify the process, or create new workspaces, open a web browser on a desktop computer and log into the ProcessMaker server with an administrator user.
Accessing ProcessMaker Mobile
After the ProcessMaker Mobile app is installed on your mobile device, a shortcut to the app displays on the device's home screen. Touch the ProcessMaker icon to open the app. If the mobile app is already configured to work use a Processmaker workspace, enter the username and password to log in.
Configuring ProcessMaker Mobile
Before starting, the mobile app on Android or iOS must be configured to either use a workspace on the ProcessMaker Enterprise Trial Server or a workspace on your own ProcessMaker server. The steps are below:
Step 1: Tap the Settings button to configure the server on Android (left image) and on iOS (right image).
The following window displays on Android (left image) or on iOS (right image).
Step 2: Type the URL of server into the Server URL field, using a URL such as http://192.168.1.1 or http://pm.example.com.
Android is in the left image; iOS is in the right image.
In this example, an account was created in an Enterprise Test Server, so the URL of that server is used.
Step 3: In the Workspace field, a name must be entered, such as "workflow3018" for this case. If using a personal ProcessMaker server, the default workspace is named "workflow".
Android is in the left image; iOS is in the right image.
After the server is configured correctly, it is possible to log on. After logging on to the ProcessMaker app, a list of the processes the user created displays. The first screen that displays is the Inbox, where cases that need to be worked on can be started.
In this screen, the following information displays:
- number of the case
- name of the process
- actual assigned
- due time
