To compare Wisp to anything out west would be a joke. But for an east coast resort, it's not too bad. Like most of the east coast, the hill is small and the snow hard packed and crunchy. The trails at Wisp are not well marked and there are lots of flats so if you're a green skier, you will end up on runs you don't want to take. But for us even the black runs seemed more like dark blues so we didn't find anything to be too challenging. Over a 3 day holiday weekend, the lift lines were never long. The green learning run "Belly flop" was completely blocked due to too many ski board classes sitting around. We rode the new alpine roller coaster and that was really fun apres ski diversion.
To their credit, the facilities were nice with a tightly integrated ski lodge (ski in/ski out), food court, indoor pool (huge 60ft & heated but small jacuzzi), bar/restaurant all connected indoors and fairly well run. The food was fair to pretty good. The hotel had room service. The queen suite we booked was small but moderately appointed (hair dryer, Murphy bed, fold out eating table, small color tvs). Upon check in they provided a valet to help with all our bags. They provided ski lockers for storage. Many skiers enjoyed the pool where towels were provided and they had hot lamps which made it feel quite warm pool side. The noise between rooms was a real problem. Apparently they allow dogs on the 2nd floor. So be careful when booking.
The Ski School Willy Wisp was more of a disappointment for us. It was way overbooked for what they could handled and extremely unorganized. Many other parents we found felt as we did. Although they had some really talented and friendly instructors, we found one of the rudest people working behind the front desk at the school. Hard as we tried to avoid this person, they were there when we dropped off and picked up our kids all 3 days. If they changed some key personnel and added either a PA or intercom system (for communication between front desk/playroom/outside ski area), and add about 200 square feet of space to the front desk area, this might help improve the operation.
Overall we had fun and enjoyed skiing and the kids did learn from the lessons. Wisp is a nice modern east coast resort with great promise. There's plenty of construction going on, building a hill top village and lots of new vacation homes. So with the right improvements in the right areas, Wisp could be even better. But beware of any reviews raving too much about it, because they either don't get out west very often or they may be shilling for the local real estate interests.

Man sentenced to 6 months in jail in accidental shooting of brother, may not serve time
"(Cameron) would have stood up for Eric," the boys' father said. "He would have fought for him. In my opinion, he wouldn't have wanted charges filed. … I know that Cameron would have wanted compassion for Eric. I believe that justice demands compassion and mercy and leniency."
As part of the plea agreement, Juab County Attorney Jared Eldridge agreed to defer the sentence to the judge. But he focused his comments on accountability.
"As hard as it is for me, we need to hold Eric Charlton accountable for what he did," Eldridge said. "Eric had control of that gun coming out. He had control of where that gun was pointing. … He had control every step of the way. It was unfortunate. It was unintentional, but it was not an accident. It was utterly reckless."
Eldridge challenged Eric Charlton to live his life as a monument to his younger brother. When Eric Charlton spoke, he thanked the judge and Eldridge, and he talked about what he is trying to do to be the best father, son and husband he can.
He said he is the father of two children and spends more time with them because his younger brother told him to put family first. He said he wears a wrist band that says, "Always Remember. Cam Bam," with "I love you" inscribed on the inside.
"I've got his watch, and it sounds cheesy, but I even carry around a flower I got off of his coffin and carry it everywhere," Eric Charlton said.
Every day, he said, he drives by the cemetery where his brother was buried. That's also how often he cries about what happened. He said he goes to the cemetery and talks to his brother. He said he has fallen asleep on his brother's grave.
"It will always be on my mind," he said, adding that when it comes to forgiving himself, he anticipates that it will be "not fully. Ever."
Defense attorney Susanne Gustin told Brady that her client will punish himself for the rest of his life. She said the case has been "gut-wrenching" and that she will now work with Charlton to come up with a plan for the judge that will satisfy the need for deterrence without jail time.
"It does put pressure on us, but it also gives us an opportunity," she said. "We don't know the sentence yet. We're satisfied to this point. ... Cameron would not want him to go to jail."
Eldridge said he would have liked to have seen Eric Charlton convicted for a felony to keep him from ever possessing firearms, though that restriction is a term of Charlton's probation. He said he believes he could have won an appeal on Brady's ruling to reduce the charge, but also didn't want to delay healing for the Charlton family.
The family did not comment on the sentence, stating they want to wait until after the review hearing, when they learn whether Eric Charlton will avoid prison. Both Trevor Charlton and Linda Osiek said in court, though, that the ongoing court process has made it difficult for them to move forward.
"It's hard to heal with this looming over not just Eric. It's looming over my family," Trevor Charlton said. "It's been hard to think about anything else."

Patient Comments: Pernicious Anemia - Symptoms
The symptoms of pernicious anemia can vary greatly from patient to patient. What were your symptoms at the onset of your disease?
Comment from: 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: October 15
My grandfather had pernicious anemia and so did my mother, an aunt, and an uncle. I have all the symptoms, but my doctor says my B12 is not low. My levels have not been checked since March of this year. It was 334. This is low normal. I have read that sometimes intrinsic factor must be checked to get a correct diagnosis. I feel so tired all the time. My hemoglobin did show up to be low. It was 10, but my doctor did not put me on iron.
Comment from: juliea, 65-74 Female (Patient) Published: May 21
I have colitis diagnosed 2 years ago; since then have lost balance, have fallen, and am clumsy walking. My ankles hurt and are easily injured, can"t exercise the way I want. I have peripheral neuropathy and am extremely tired. Every symptom falls within the list for pernicious anemia. I had a B12 and folate level drawn yesterday, so now have to wait. Good luck to you all.
Comment from: Lolac, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: April 11
I"ve had severe reaction to coldness, muscle pain, extreme fatigue, lack of concentration, pain in arms which feels like nerve damage and more recently dizziness. I got B12 checked which showed 164, the general physician said although it was low he didn"t feel the need to treat it as the symptoms were attributed to another medication I take for ulcerative colitis and arthritis. I explained I had experienced these symptoms before I began the medication. Having read many case studies on the pernicious anemia site I"m convinced that is the problem. I am only 37 and my quality of life is terrible, I"m so tired and this is not good as I"m a mother of a two year old.
Comment from: Katie, 65-74 Female (Patient) Published: October 24
I was diagnosed with pernicious anemia in my late forties. I was walking with a friend and could barely walk up a slight slope without sitting on a wall for a rest. I had felt tired at times and tingling in my feet and hands sometimes but I was a busy person so just thought I needed to slow down a bit. However that day worried me as I had never been that tired before. My general physician checked my reflexes which were okay and decided to take a blood sample. She sent for me a few days later to do some more tests and found I had a low B12 level so ended up being diagnosed with pernicious anemia. When I saw the specialist, he took one look at me and said I had all the classic symptoms before he even diagnosed me! Once I learned more about it I realized I may have had it for years without knowing! I had low blood count especially after giving birth to my two daughters and I also had 4 miscarriages at 3 months each time, and could have no more children. There were other times I was ill not knowing what was wrong, I had loss of balance, etc.
Comment from: christopher, 65-74 Male (Patient) Published: October 15
I am a male, 69 years old, and was diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in 2010. I could hardly do anything that needed effort due to my breathing. I had numerous things going wrong, e.g., dizziness, slurred speech, tingling fingers, and a very sore tongue. Everything was COPD I was told. It wasn't till I went to Greece in 2013, I collapsed and rushed to hospital where I required 5 units of blood, I was told I had severe pernicious anemia and had been severely neglected for about 3 years. I had very little B12 in my body and my hemoglobin level was 4.4 - severely dangerous. Now I am home and being treated properly my COPD has magically gone. I get short of breath sometimes but I know now its caused by pernicious anemia.
Published: August 07
I started having severe abdominal cramping two nights ago and which was preceded by constipation for two days. When I woke up the following more of the beginning of the cramping I felt OK, but then by the afternoon I ate lunch and started having severe diarrhea. Now the cramping has been going on for two days and I can't keep anything in my stomach. I have been diagnosed with IBS in the past along with anemia, but with my IBS I don't normally have the cramping.
Comment from: MightyWeak, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: August 25
I am 44 years old and have just been diagnosed with pernicious anemia. My B12 level was at the bottom of the barrel on the chart on my blood test. My symptoms began vaguely but then quickly got worse as time went on. I am extremely fatigued and my muscles hurt. I have heart palpitations and shortness of breath easily. Mental confusion is a huge symptom for me. I have begun taking B12 injections one time per week. I'm on my third day with it, and I am beginning to see a slight improvement. Thank goodness!

My friends and I stayed there as it was near the Ragnar Relay course. The front desk staff were so incredibly rude that I will never stay at another "Extended Stay America" hotel again. I called two days prior to put the reservation in a friend's name as she would be arriving first. The woman I spoke with assured me that the room had been transferred to my friend. I asked if she should still mention my name at check-in and the woman screamed "IT'S NO LONGER YOUR ROOM"!!! Sure enough, my friends arrived and were unable to check in because it was STILL under my name! The incompetence of the staff was astounding.

This report compiles papers prepared for the NEPAD-OECD Expert Roundtable in Kampala on 11 December 2008, specifically: how to increase sound private investment in Africa's road infrastructure; an overview of regional road infrastructure projects in the East African Community; emerging public and sovereign fund investors in Africa's infrastructure; and, engaging the private sector in African infrastructure.
The high-level meeting discussed investment policy reform to explore measures to implement concrete plans for sustainably improving African countries' investment climates.

The China Wok is not a "fancy" establishment and could be considered a "hole in the wall" thus its atmosphere is "so so." But if you love Chinese food this is a great place to go. It has the best Hot and Sour Soup in the valley, a luncheon menu that is both economical and broad (with a choice of rice type, soup or eggroll and main dish), and excellent cooking. The quality of the food rivals Cafe Asia (which is my second favorite). The owners are very friendly, the kitchen is busy, but clean. My favorites are the General Tso's Chicken, Garlic Chicken and the Chicken with Broccoli (with vegetable friend rice and Hot and Sour soup)... especially at lunch which is a "steal" at $5.00 or less for a meal!!! It is next to Walgreens on Williamson Road at Hershberger. It's only "knock" is atmosphere, but the food is wonderful! (Note that they are closed on Mondays... Delivery is free if the order is over $10.

The present invention relates generally to improvements in work flow management. More particularly, the invention relates to advantageous techniques for creating, examining and editing work objects.
Design and management of work flow in many enterprises often advantageously employs the use of work objects. Work objects are analogous to objects used in object-oriented programming. Each object is typically a set of data and instructions, wherein the data and instructions define the performance of a given set of actions. The data and instructions also characterize the object and govern its behavior. An object is typically defined by a set of data fields, which are used to define the specific element of work being processed or performed by the work object. The data fields are used as containers for information used during processing or to define the routing which the object takes as the flow of work proceeds. For example, a work object used to define the action of approving a loan application may include a data field defining an amount, for example, $500,000, above which approval must be sought from a higher authority. The work object may also contain instructions directing the routing of the work object, with the routing depending on whether the loan sought is above or below $500,000. If the loan sought is below $500,000, the object may remain at, for example, a local branch office. If the loan sought is greater than $500,000, the object may be referred to an approval authority at a central headquarters for processing by the authority and then routed back to the local branch office after processing by the approval authority.
Each work object also includes a set of instructions, which defines the operations which are to be undertaken and how the operations relate to the data fields. Each work object is preferably designed to provide data and functions needed by other work objects without a need for any work object to take into account the internal operation of another work object. Each work object simply interacts with other work objects to receive data and services and to provide data and services, without any awareness or need for awareness of the internal functioning of the work objects with which it interacts.
The use of work objects offers a number of advantages. If a task is separated into a number of work objects, that task can be distributed among a number of different persons or organizations, hereafter referred to as users, each working on the portion of the task defined by the work object, with data being transferred as defined by the work object. Moreover, as processing of a work object proceeds, different actions may be called for in order to continue processing of the object. For example, a work object may sequentially call for receiving and processing information from a customer, statistical analysis of the information received and preparation of a report on the information received from that customer and similar customers. These functions may suitably be performed by different users, each user specializing in one of the functions. As each function is reached, the work object may suitably be routed to the appropriate user so that processing may proceed. Routing of the work object may suitably be controlled by instructions contained within the work object.
Work flow can thus be followed from one work object to another, and from one user to another, without a need for each user working on the overall project to coordinate his or her activities with the others. Instead, coordination is accomplished through the definitions provided by the work objects and the design of work flow, which links work objects which must be processed sequentially, in coordination or in some other related fashion.
Work flow and work objects relating to a particular task may suitably be maintained on a computer or computer network, and work objects to be processed by various users may suitably be distributed to those users by sending the work objects to them or directing them to the work objects as maintained on a computer network and giving them access to the work objects in order to perform their functions.
Systems and networks used in the processing and hosting of work objects are frequently designed so that when a user starts to process a work object, the work object is treated as being in the possession of that user, and is locked to prevent access by others. When a work object is locked, no other user can have access to it until it is unlocked. This practice helps to prevent errors and conflicts by preventing two users from processing the work object with neither knowing that the other is processing it.
However, when a user has finished processing a work object, he or she may forget to unlock it. When work objects are distributed over a computer network, the objects may be distributed among users who are separated by great distances, so that it may be difficult to contact a user who has inadvertently left a work object locked in order to find out if the object is still being processed and to ask the user to unlock the object. In addition, a system event such as a network outage or timeout, a computer failure in one or more servers, a failure in an application being run on a server or workstation, or a workstation failure may have adverse effects in this environment. For example, these and similar events may cause the locking of one or more objects without a user's being aware that the objects were locked. As a result, such objects may be routed to new users in a locked state.
It would be advantageous to be able to search for locked work objects and to forcibly unlock those which appeared to have been inadvertently left locked. A large organization may maintain many work objects, many of which may have similar characteristics, so that it would be advantageous to be able to create search queries in order to retrieve work objects having similar characteristics and to unlock or perform other operations on a batch of work objects conforming to the terms of a query. In addition, work objects often require maintenance and editing in order to improve them and to update them in light of changed information. Editing, however, may change critical features of a work object unless a user has sufficient expertise to recognize a critical feature or value, or unless warned against making a critical change. It would also be advantageous, therefore, to be able to edit a work object but to be automatically warned when attempting to change critical features.
A work object manager according to an aspect of the present invention may comprise a user interface for receiving user inputs, the user interface allowing a user to construct queries defining a set of work objects on which simultaneous operations are to be performed and to specify an operation to be performed on the set of work objects and a plurality of operational modules operative to perform the specified operation on the defined set of work objects.
The operational modules may suitably comprise a batch unlock manager operative to receive a query specifying a range of locations to be searched for work objects, the query further specifying characteristics relating to locking of work objects. The batch unlock manager is operative to return work objects in the specified range of locations and having the specified lock characteristics and is further operative to simultaneously unlock the returned work objects upon a selection by the user.
The operational modules may also include a work object unlocker operative to receive a query identifying an individual work object and to retrieve and display a work object meeting the terms of the query. The work object unlocker unlocks the work object upon a user selection.
The operational modules may further include a work object editor operative to receive a query identifying an individual work object, to retrieve and display a work object meeting the terms of the query and to receive and accept user entries changing field values of fields in the work objects.
The operational modules may additionally include a batch operations manager operative to receive a query defining a category of work objects and a command specifying an operation to be performed on work objects meeting the terms of the query and to perform the specified operation upon work objects meeting the terms of the query.
A method of work object management according to an alternative aspect of the present invention comprises presenting an interface to a user allowing user specification of a category of work objects, the category comprising multiple work objects, the interface also allowing user identification of one or more operations to be performed on the category of work objects, the operations including searching for and unlocking groups of work objects, searching for and unlocking individual work objects, searching for and editing individual work objects and searching for and performing specified operations on categories of work objects comprising multiple work objects. Upon specification of the category of work objects and identification of the operations, the specified operations are performed on work objects included within the specified category.
A more complete understanding of the present invention, as well as further features and advantages of the invention, will be apparent from the following Detailed Description and the accompanying drawings.
The central server 102 is connected to a network 108, which is in turn connected to a plurality of client computers 110A-110E. Authorized users of the client computers 110A-110E are able to retrieve work flow documents from the work flow document database 106 in order to process the work objects included in the work flow documents. In addition, specific work objects in a work flow document can be assigned to specific users, who are then given access only to specified work objects within a particular work flow document. These users can process the work objects and submit the results of processing as instructed, or can place the work object into a work object queue, for retrieval and processing by a subsequent user. A work object queue is suitably maintained for each user or automatic process performing a particular function called for by a work object. For example, one or more work objects may include instructions for the scheduling of an appraisal in connection with a housing loan application. Such work objects may suitably be stored in the work object queue 112 as these instructions are encountered in the work objects, for retrieval by the user performing this function. Other similar work object queues may suitably be created for each function or instruction to be performed according to a work object. In this way, the work objects comprising a work flow document can distributed among users and transferred from one user to another as called for by the work flow document. Users can view and process work flow documents and work objects using suitable tools, for example the program VISUAL WORKFLO from FILENET.
Each work object may suitably be assigned to a work object class. Each work object class includes a specific category of work object having similar characteristics. The work object classes may be hierarchically organized, for example according to the generality of the operations they specify. A broad class may include a plurality of narrower classes. For example, a broad class of work objects having to do with processing insurance claims may include work objects calling for review of claims. This broad class may include narrower classes, for example work objects calling for review by a supervisor and work objects calling for review by an adjuster. Organizing work objects into classes and organizing the classes into a hierarchical structure simplifies management of the work objects.
A roster may suitably exist for each class of work objects, preferably stored in a work object database such as the database 104, a work object queue such as the queue 112 or both. Each roster includes references to all work objects belonging to the class described by the roster. A work object is located by performing a query on the roster for the class to which it belongs. Each work object may include a designation of a particular server as its home server, and may appear in a roster hosted on its home server. In addition, a server to which the work object has been transmitted for processing may suitably include a reference to the work object in a roster hosted on that server. Thus, a work object may be referred to by as many as two different rosters, one hosted on its home server and another hosted in the server in which it temporarily resides, for example as a result of having been transmitted for processing. A work object may be located by searching the rosters hosted on the servers on which it may appear, and may then be retrieved for processing once it is located.
In order to prevent conflicts between users, a work object is automatically locked when being processed by a user. The work object remains locked until released. If a user has finished processing a work object but forgets to release it, the work object remains locked and unavailable for other users under the normal operation of most work flow processing tools in common use. In addition, it is usually not clear when a work object is locked, because work objects tend to reside in the work object database 104, or as part of work flow documents in the work flow document database 106, where they remain until required for processing. In the ordinary course of processing work objects, therefore, a work object which has been inadvertently left locked will tend to remain locked until needed again. At this time, it will be discovered that the work object is locked and it must be unlocked, interfering with the flow of processing and causing inconvenience and loss of time. Tools exist for unlocking work objects, but these tools often require special expertise for their use, so that a typical user lacking such expertise cannot use a locked work object until he or she has contacted someone who is able to release the work object.
In order to overcome this problem, the system 100 includes a work object manager 114, which may suitably be hosted on the server 102, although it may suitably be hosted on any other server accessible using the network 108. The work object manager 114 has access to the work object database 104, all work object queues such as the work object queue 112 and a user database 115. When invoked by a user, the work object manager 114 retrieves user information about the user from the user database 115, in order to identify the privileges of the user. Preferably, the work object manager 114 can only be invoked by a user who has properly logged onto the network 108. Therefore, when the work object manager 114 is invoked, the invoking user is identified and it is a simple matter for the work object manager 114 to determine the user privileges of the invoking user. The work object manager 114 also has access to temporary data storage 116, to allow storage of work objects and other data for processing by the work object manager 114.
The work object manager 114 includes a batch unlock manager 117 for reporting work queue statistics and for processing unlock operations directed toward work objects belonging to a category of work objects, a work object unlocker 118 for unlocking an individual work object, a work object editor 120 for creating and editing an individual work object and a batch operations manager 122 performing operations on groups of work objects, with groups being suitably defined according to predetermined categories, or by queries designed by the user. The batch unlock manager 117, the work object unlocker 118, the work object editor 120 and the batch operations manager 122 suitably locate work objects by searching the various rosters located in work object databases and work object queues residing on various servers within the system 100, and may suitably perform operations on objects by retrieving objects, storing them in temporary data storage 116, performing the specified operations and returning them to the locations from which they were taken.
The batch unlock manager 117 reports on work queue statistics and performs batch lock operations. The batch unlock manager 117 allows a user to design queries to find locked work objects in a queue which meet other designated criteria, such as a particular age of a lock. These queries may be used to search the various queues, either directly or by examining rosters hosted on various servers. The batch unlock manager can also list all locked objects in the system 100 and can list all objects, locked or unlocked, in the system 100. To list all locked objects or all objects, the batch unlock manager 117 simply creates a query having the required parameters and conducts a search using this query.
The batch unlock manager 117 can also gather and display statistical information about work queue operations, such as the number of locked versus unlocked work objects, again by creating the necessary queries, searching using these queries and presenting the results obtained. This information is useful in determining the level of work being carried out in objects managed using the system 100, because in the normal case, a locked object is being actively worked on.
The work object unlocker 118 allows a user to retrieve an individual work object, for example by entering a query identifying the work object by name, determining whether the object is locked, and unlocking it if desired.
The work object editor 120 allows a user to edit field values belonging to an individual work object. The work object editor 120 allows the user to retrieve an individual work object, and to display the various fields included in the work object, along with the value presently residing in each field. The user can then enter new values in the fields if desired, and can perform other operations.
The batch operations manager 122 allows a user to retrieve, identify or perform simultaneous operations on groups of work objects meeting specified criteria. The user may specify operations to be performed and may then make selections defining the work objects on which operations are to be performed. Details of the operations which may be performed are illustrated in FIG. 6 and discussed in greater detail below.
The user may specify processing options, which identify the objects to be processed according to predefined criteria. Available options include the choice to process or report, which is a safety feature allowing the user to see what would happen as a result of the selected processing without performing the processing. Additional options, which define the objects on which processing or reporting is to be performed, are "all items," which performs the operation on all objects in a queue without being limited by query terms; "all queues," which performs the operation on all queues; "complete," which performs the operation on all objects in all queues; and "batch size," which specifies the grouping size on which the operation is to be performed. Operations are typically performed on successive groups of objects, with the number of objects in each successive group being defined by the "batch size" selection.
A user may design a query defining a group of work objects and may then select operations to be performed on work objects matching the terms of the query. The batch operations manager 122 also allows the user to select query options in order to add additional definition to the query, for example to remove restrictions which would otherwise be present, or to specify operations to be performed on objects matching the query. For example, suppose the user may design a query to specify all work objects on which work was last performed within the last six hours, and then select a query option. Available query options include "none," which returns all objects which match the query and are not locked, bound or specified as read only; "locked," which returns all objects that match the query specification, including locked objects; "bound", which returns all objects matching the query specification including those which are bound; and "unwriteable," which returns all matching objects including read-only objects. An additional available query option is "want to lock," which directs locking of all work objects matching the query.
The batch operations manager 122 allows a user to create a query in order to specify elements on which to perform operations, and to specify operations to be performed on the elements. Elements which may be specified include for example queues, queue fields, work objects or work object fields. A query may specify a plurality of queue fields. For example, a particular field may occur in a number of work objects, and a query may be constructed to specify a selected group of work objects, and a particular field occurring in some of all of the work objects. A group operation may be performed, in which a selected operation is performed on each occurrence of the specified element. Available operations include "reformat," which allows the format of a field in a work object to be changed. For example, many work objects may include a field specifying a time and date of the creation of the work object. By using the "reformat" operation, a user is able to change the format of the time and date specification, for example from an AM/PM specification for the hour to a 24-hour specification. This operation would be performed on all work objects matching the terms of a query and including the field on which the operation was to be performed. Other available operations include a "replace" operation, allowing the replacement of values in a work object field. A user would specify an original value to be replaced and the new value to replace it, and the new value would replace the original value in every work object meeting whatever other query terms were specified. Another available operation is the "Clean Errors" operation, which clears the most common work object error in a designated queue.
In order to prevent users from making errors which delete or otherwise corrupt critical elements of the work object, the work object editor 120 and the batch operations manager 122 preferably analyze user inputs to determine if the inputs affect critical elements of the work object. The analysis may suitably be performed by analyzing the effect of each user command before executing it and, if the command affects a critical element, presenting a confirmation request to the user, suitably in the form of a dialog box which describes the effect of the command for the user and requests that the user confirm the command. Another safety feature is provided by the fact that the work object manager is aware of the user privileges. If a user has insufficient privileges to perform a particular command, the work object manager 114 presents a dialog box informing the user that his or her privileges are insufficient to perform the selected command, and that the command will not be executed.
The work object manager 114 also has access to an operations log 124, in which are entered the search terms of each search, results of each search and operations performed on each work object during use of the work object manager 114.
The user interface 200 is shown here with the "Queues" tab 202 selected, showing a batch unlock manager interface 210. The interface 210 allows a user to search a selected queue for work objects meeting specified criteria. The interface 210 includes an age limit field 212, allowing the user to enter the minimum age of an object to be returned as a search result, as well as checkboxes allowing the user to specify search criteria and operations. The checkboxes provided are the boxes 214-219, allowing a user to designate a search for all locked objects, to exclude system queues from a search, to unlock objects which are returned as search results, or to return all objects in all queues, respectively. In addition, the interface 210 includes fields 220A and 220B for entry of a beginning search date and time, respectively, and fields 222A and 222B for entry of an ending search date and time, respectively. In the illustrated case, the beginning and ending search dates and times have been automatically inserted based on the user's entry in the age limit field 212. The "Sweep" button 224 executes the search.
The interface 210 illustrates the results of the selected search. The search results include a graph 225 illustrating the total number of locked and unlocked objects present in the queue which has been searched. The search results also include a search results window 226, showing details of the object discovered in the search shown in the field 227. The interface 200 also includes an operations window 228, visible below the interface 210 and showing the actions undertaken during the search.
The interface 210 also allows a user to obtain queue statistics, illustrating details of objects in the queue which was searched. In order to obtain queue statistics, the user activates the "Queue Statistics" button 230.
A user may select the "Override Lock" checkbox 508 if desired. Selecting the checkbox 508 will allow editing of the object even if it is locked. In order to edit the object, the user simply makes appropriate entries in selected ones of the various field values 506A-506T visible in the editing window 502.
The interface 500 also includes various command buttons, allowing the user to perform selected operations. The "Find" button 510 executes a query in order to search for a work object identified in the query field 512. The "Update" button 514 enters any changes which have been made up until the time the button 514 is activated. The "Save/Dispatch" button 516 saves all changes which have been made and routes the object to the next user who is to perform work on the object. The "Lock" button 518 locks the work object and the "Unlock/Dispatch" button 520 unlocks the work object and routes it to the next user. The "Unlock" button 522 unlocks the work object, but retains it for further processing.
The interface 600 also includes fields and selectors allowing a user to designate an operation to be performed. A format selector 614 allows a user to select a desired format to be applied using a "Format" operation. "Replace" fields 616 and 618 allow the user to designate an original value to be replaced and a new value to replace the original value. The "Processing Options" selector 620 allows the user to designate whether the selected operation is to be actually performed, or whether the results are to be reported without performing the operation. The checkboxes 622A-622C allow the user to designate the scope of the operation, and the field 624 allows the user to designate a batch size for the operation. The "Query Options" checkboxes 626A-626E allow the user to refine the query.
The pushbuttons 628-636 allow the user to designate operations to be performed. The "Query" button 628 creates a work queue query using the selectors and fields 602-612, 622A-622C, 624 and 626A-626D, and returns the query results, which are then available to be operated on. The "Query" button 632 creates a work object query using the selectors and fields 602-612, 622A-622C, 624 and 626A-626D, and returns the query results, which are then available to be operated on. The "Reformat" button 630 applies the format chosen using the format selector 614 to the returned results. The "Clean Errors" button 636 repairs the most common work object error in the designated queue. The "Browse" button 634 allows the user to scroll through the work objects which have been returned as a result of a query.
The interface 610 also includes a query results window 638, showing the objects which have been returned as a result of a query and the operations which have been performed on the objects. Also visible is the operations window 228, showing the progress of the queries and operations.
At step 812, upon a user selection of a work object unlocker interface, the user is presented with a second subordinate interface allowing the user to search for and unlock individual work objects, as well as to allow editing of work objects, if desired. At step 814, upon a user's entry of a work object identifier and selection to execute a query based on the identifier, a work object matching the identifier is retrieved and displayed. At step 816, upon the user's selection to unlock the work object, the work object is unlocked. At step 818, if the user has selected to allow editing of work objects, appropriate changes are made to the displayed work object upon a user's entry of new field values in various fields of the work objects. At step 820, a log is updated to reflect the actions taken at steps 814-818.
At step 822, upon a user selection of a work object editor interface, the user is presented with a third subordinate interface which allows the user to search for, retrieve and display individual work objects, to edit field values belonging to the retrieved objects and to perform additional operations on the retrieved objects. If the user has previously retrieved and displayed a work object using another available interface, that work object remains displayed when the work object editor interface is presented. At step 824, if a user enters a work object identifier and makes a selection to execute a query based on the identifier, a work object matching the identifier is retrieved and displayed, replacing any previously displayed work object. At step 826, upon a user entry of new values in various fields of the displayed work object, these values are maintained in a buffer for entry into the work object upon an appropriate user command. At step 828, upon entry by a user of a command, processing of the work object is performed in accordance with the command and with any new values entered by the user, with confirmation being required for commands causing unrecoverable changes, such as entry of new values into the work object. Available commands include updating the work object to include the new values, saving the work object and dispatching it for further processing, locking the work object, unlocking the work object and unlocking the work object and dispatching it for further processing. At step 830, a log is updated to reflect the actions taken at steps 826-828.
At step 832, in response to a user selection of a batch operations manager interface, the user is presented with a fourth subordinate interface allowing the construction and execution of queries defining groups of work objects and the execution of selected operations on those work objects. At step 834, query and command parameters are received from the user. Query parameters may, for example, include filter selections defining whether the query is to apply to queues, work objects or system fields and selections of queues, work classes, queue fields and work object fields to which the query is to apply, parameters specifying the scope of the query as well as user-entered specifications of query parameters. Command parameters may suitably include a selection as to whether the specified command is to be executed or a report provided of the selected actions without the actions being performed. Other available command parameters include format selections and selection of text to be replaced and the new replacement text. At step 836, upon a user's selection of a command, the selected command is executed and a group of work objects processed in accordance with the definitions provided by the query, with the actions taken being defined by the command parameters and the selected command.
Although the steps 802-836 have been presented here as occurring in sequence for ease of description and illustration, it will be recognized that the steps need not occur in sequence, but instead may occur in any order appropriate to user needs and inputs.
While the present invention is disclosed in the context of aspects of a presently preferred embodiment, it will be recognized that a wide variety of implementations may be employed by persons of ordinary skill in the art consistent with the above discussion and the claims which follow below.
