AgilePoint&nbs= p;now offers a new layer of business user-driven extensibility and integration = for SAP. Quickly and easily create workflows that can connect to = SAP as the business transaction management solution. Please contact us= for pricing details. Take a look at this video<= /span>.

This release includes the following major enhancements, please review the Relea= se Notes for a complete list of enhancements and fixes:

AgilePoint Server as a Windows Service
The Windows Service version allows for multiple AgilePoint Servers as well as AgilePoint Enterprise Managers to run on a single machine. Since A= gilePoint Server is running as a Windows Service and using WCF as the communication mechanism, either HTTP or TCP protocol can be used.

· AgileExtender Framework
The AgileExtender framework allows for elements to be built using AgilePoint Developer that can "overlay" the process in AgilePoint Envisi= on, rather than being inserted in the process flow. These "overlaid&qu= ot; extender elements are associated with a range of in-line process elements. This new feature provides an increased level of extensib= ility and allows layers of powerful functionality to be added to the process without making the core process model unnecessarily convoluted or complex. The AgileExtender framework presents an event-driven modu= le that captures process level events and activity level events. It is also able to interact with the AgilePoint engine using API.

In addition to the framework, a new SLA AgileExtender is prov= ided out-of-the-box that allows you to set a timer to track the time taken to complete a group of activities to ensure that the SLA is not compromised. If the time taken to complete the activities reache= s a certain date or time, an email notification can be sent and/or an AgilePoint process can be initiated.

Common Dialog AgileWork
The Common Dia= log AgileWork enables Envision users to create a dialog box form in SharePoint. The most common use for this AgileShape is creating si= mple input or approval forms. Once you have created a Common Dialog and deployed your process, the dialog displays to a user when he or she clicks a task in SharePoint.

DateTime Operation AgilePart
The DateTime Operation AgilePart enables Envision users to perform complex date calculations within a process model using a simple graphical user interface. The DateTime Services AgilePart can manipulate the oper= ations between two DateTime input values or add extra values (second/minute/hour/days etc) to one DateTime value.

WCF AgilePart
A new WCF AgilePart has been added to the Premier Stencil that enables you to call WCF enabled services.

CAML Query Builder AgilePart
AgilePoint Envision includes a new AgilePart that enables you to create a SharePoint view based on available fields using a CAML query. You = can use the CAML Query Builder AgilePart to create your CAML query, and your view.

Word AgilePart
The Word AgilePart enables Envision users to create Word documents (.doc or .docx files) or PDF files from Word templates (.dot or .d= otx files), filling from the template in fields with values you specif= y in the generated document.

In pre-release versions of the Word AgilePart, as well as the PDF AgilePart, customers were required to purchase a separate license = from Aspose. These additional licenses are no longer required for Envis= ion v5.0 and higher.

Pass Milestone and Wait for Milestone AgileParts
Two new AgileParts work together to enable processes to wait for an event that is not within the direct process flow, and then continue once the event is complete. For example, if an activity cannot start within a process until an approval occurs in a subprocess, there is now a way to regulate the process flow based on that event. The Pass Milestone and Wait for Milestone AgileParts work together in a caller/listener model to support this functionality. <= /o:p>

Complex Multiple Condition AgilePart
The Multiple Condition activity has been enhanced to include an advanced configuration mode where you can now implement more advanced type = of logic and build more complex expressions.

Manage Process Level Attributes
AgilePoint Envision now enables you to define custom attributes at a pro= cess level. This additional setup step eliminates the need to type the = name of a custom attribute in the data binding properties for an AgileS= hape because the names are available in the schema dialog box. <= span lang=3DEN-US style=3D'font-family:Verdana;mso-ansi-language:EN-US; mso-fareast-language:EN-US'>

Email Approval
Using email approval, process participants can approve documents or requests through email, without accessing their task lists.

Sincerely,

AgilePoint, Inc. & Systemation<= /span>
