Re: Help me develop a Job Tracker (?)

I am currently thinking about the database representation. I don't think I can solve this with django-viewflow: I need to be able to specify in advance a deadline and an assignee for each task of a work flow.

Maybe consider the following: A work flow consists of a number of tasks. Each task is followed by another task or 'end'. Each task has a predecessor which is either another task or 'start'. Now model a task which contains some information and the primary key of it predecessor and successor. A work flow contains a description and the primary key of the currently active task. The advantage is that in this way a work flow can consist of any number of tasks. The user then could define a template work flow where for example the assignee of some task (or all) is predefined. New work flows can then be started using either a template or a new definition from scratch.

Maybe you could give me some input. I am not to familiar with all this stuff...
