Building an ERP with BPMN & Workflow Engines

TuKSS2021 Group Project #4 Intro

Get to know the technologies used in this project:

• Install the Camunda Platform (the open-source workflow engine, we recommend using Docker) & the Camunda modeler: https://camunda.com/download/
• Follow the Camunda Quick Start guide: https://docs.camunda.org/get-started/quick-start/
• We recommend you follow the examples using JavaScript and NodeJS in the Quick Start Guide
• Note any observations you make along the way (feedback for the Camunda folks)
• Join the Camunda University Slack, search the Camunda Forum or ask the teaching team in case of questions.
• Adapt the example to a small custom workflow that is relevant for you (and adapt the worker script). Maybe some data can be fetched from a remote API?
• Publish the BPMN diagram and the worker code together with your notes in a separate folder in a forked repository and open a Pull Request to this repository with your changes

Tips:

• Should you a direct URL of the deployed Camunda Engine not work, visit the root page, i.e. localhost:8080 and navigate from there
• If prompted for a login, use demo/demo
• I've run into an issue with external forms and opened an issue on the Camunda Forum: https://forum.camunda.org/t/quick-start-guide-out-of-date-404-on-external-form/27314
