People Integration

UC4 Workload Automation Suite allows both your IT staff and your business users to securely manage and monitor their activities through role-based views. Key people integration features include:

Centralized Management and Control
An enterprise-wide graphical view of all systems means your Production Control and IT Operations teams no longer need to use multiple utilities to set up and manage workload. With all your business knowledge (business rules, job parameters, passwords, log-ins, conditional processing logic, exception handling procedures, etc.) residing in a central repository as re-usable objects, the burden of new process set up, change management, production maintenance and monitoring is removed.

Intuitive Design Environment
A graphical design environment provides your Production Control staff with a simple tool to configure and maintain complex automation procedures. Drag&drop enables rapid creation of process dependencies and conditions using point and click. All of your users benefit from our easy to understand view of job plans, process chains and dependencies.

Role-Based Views
Highly granular security controls combined with role-based access allows your users to manage their own workload. End-users can set parameters, submit jobs, check outcomes and review output files with no need to refer back to the IT department. At the same time, senior management can remain informed of overall business performance through GANTT views on a digital dashboard and automated notifications.

Report Management & Distribution
Automate the publishing and distribution of output, by sending out reports the second a job completes via email or to any network-accessible device, including PDAs, pagers, faxes and printers. Your end users can browse their reports online using powerful, secure viewing tools, and document content can be exported to applications including MS Excel and Word. All of your users gain immediate access to information in a form that best suits their business needs.

Compliance and Corporate Governance
UC4 helps you ensure internal auditors as well as external inspectors can be provided with a full account of what happened, where and when for all IT workload. We help you mitigate business risk by securing access to production controls and providing end-to-end transparency and traceability for all critical processing activities.

Application Developer Toolbox
Your Production Control and Development teams can easily assemble objects to form process definitions using simple, familiar drag&drop features, and access all related functions via context-sensitive menus. Our Software Developer Kit plug-ins and open APIs allow developers to integrate workload automation into new and existing applications.

Java Client Access
An intuitive, platform-independent Java™-based client ensures both your new and your experienced users can manage and monitor their workload, without additional training. They can keep an eye on processing from Web portals using iViews. Multilingual support allows users to work in the language they prefer—be it English, German or French.
