Abstract

This invention provides for a self-directed routable electronic form generation system and method where each user in the process defines the next, or all the subsequent user routing. The invention resides in providing rules and guidelines that define routing to exist completely within the electronic form itself. Residing in the electronic form these routing rules are dynamically changed based on data input to the form, providing visual clues to the routing based on that input. The present invention generates in the approver's view of the form appropriate visual elements corresponding with allowable actions of this subsequent viewer. The present invention also provides visual clues as to the next routing destination based on the electronics form current fill-in data, or based on any changes the approver makes to fill-in data, all without server interaction. This sequence continues until the electronics 'form flow' is complete and an end point is reached.
