	I-nnovate is pleased to have been selected by Business Resource Development Ltd as its flagship Solutions Partner for the Americas - providing sales, consulting, development, training and technical support for SWiFT 7 customers.

	SWiFT 7 for Metastorm BPM is a powerful translator/generator that enhances the client interface of Metastorm BPM forms distributed onto the Web or corporate intranets. SWiFT's translator dynamically customizes each forms look-and-feel to match corporate web page designs using ASP.NET style sheets or "skins", and then provides user access to SWiFT forms from inside any corporate website.

	With SWiFT, you can create sophisticated corporate and customer-facing e-Forms, which are orchestrated by Metastorm BPM's powerful automated processing capability, without the need of complicated ASP programming or the use of external forms packages. Simply install and link SWiFT to the target website and forms can be created and published directly from the Metastorm BPM designer, and then deployed to any website by simply embedding code on the target page and using standard web programming techniques.

	SWiFT's layered technology translates content from the Metastorm BPM Engine and generates it into feature rich "smart" forms that support all leading browser platforms including Microsoft Internet Explorer®, Netscape Navigator®, Opera™, Mozilla Firefox® and Apple Safari™ - as well as Windows®, Linux® and Apple Mac® operating systems.

	With SWiFT 7, you can now partition lengthy, heavy-weight forms into user-friendly multi-page e-Forms that provide automatic data entry retention, backward/forward navigation buttons, conditional page skipping, conditional data field visibility and validation, automated form object events, customizable field "hints" and alerts, enhanced reporting and "form parking", which allows users to log out of Metastorm and later, log back in to recommence data entry in their procedure at the specific point they left off.

	One primary feature to note, SWiFT allows fully customizable column labels and data elements for Metastorm BPM's To-Do and Watch lists, allowing process-specific nomenclature and alerts to be presented in lists which are explicitly relevant to users.

	Data intensive, multi-page forms will load faster using SWiFT, enhancing the user experience. The SWiFT engine is optimized to read and write only the data from the Metastorm BPM engine expressly needed for rendering Metastorm BPM forms. This is coupled with SWiFT's optimized e-Form rendering code to provide a delivery system that loads forms in the fastest times possible.

	SWiFT 7's architecture ensures that installing and running SWiFT does not compromise the original Metastorm BPM environment. All file locations, registry settings, and web forms are installed in separate locations, making management clean and less problematic. Even with SWiFT installed, users can choose to operate Metastorm BPM in its native form (i.e.; without enhanced e-Forms), or use the SWiFT interface just by pointing the browser to an alternate URL.

	With SWiFT, mobile users with PDA's using Windows CE such as Pocket PC and Blackberry can now view and participate in processes anytime, from anywhere. SWiFT can even be used on WAP Phones. Users who find themselves outside wireless coverage are still be able to benefit using SWiFT's offline e-Forms processing capability. SWiFT automatically resynchronizes with the Metastorm enterprise as soon as connectivity is re-established, transferring any e-Forms for processing and retrieving any new tasks or data elements in queue for the user.

	SWiFT's "e-Mail Listener" module allows Metastorm BPM processes to automatically extract and manipulate data from any specified POP3 compliant mailbox, or an SMS system that has it's POP3 service installed. Received e-Mails can be made to automatically start new folders in a Metastorm process, or simply add to the data contained within an active process incidence. E-Mail sourced data and message content can be displayed within a form, can be automatically stored as values in custom variables for forms, or written directly to one or more databases for future use. The e-Mail Listener can be configured to filter on specific accounts or instances such as 'Sent From', 'Subject', CC, BCC, or in-fact, any message header content... .even the Message body text itself!

	SWiFT 7 provides simultaneous multiple language user support from the same process incidence. SWiFT supports multiple code-page and date-languages from the same process, and by using alternative URL's, users can also access translated language e-Forms for firms with international offices.
