All published articles are automatically published via the RSS feed.

The CMS automatically generates an XML Sitemap which can be submitted to search engines for faster indexing of new content.

Is workflow customizable?

Image

Workflow is a series of activities that form a real world process and defines the order in which these activities are processed and their dependencies. In a software sense, ' work flow' refers to the triggering of events and the processing of corresponding actions. This process turns a software application from being simply a data entry and retrieval system into a business application that reflects business processes, thus increasing both quality and productivity and reducing costs.

User Access Control Limits

Every class in the system has ACLs (Access Control Limits ) which prevent CRUD ( Create, Read, Update and Delete) of records that are unauthorized. These ACLs are applied to all requests regardless of where or how the requests is made.

The same ACLs apply to web forms, SOAP requests, ReST or any other protocol.
