# RE Workflow Management System - Executive Summary
|
|
## Project Status & Timeline
|
|
|
|
**Date:** October 23, 2025
|
|
**Project:** RE Workflow Management System (Non-Templatized)
|
|
**Target Launch:** End of December 2025
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## ✅ What's Complete (10%)
|
|
|
|
1. **Frontend UI Extraction:** 80% complete from Figma
|
|
- All pages visually complete
|
|
- Mobile responsive (320px - 1920px)
|
|
- **But:** No functionality, just visual components with dummy data
|
|
|
|
2. **Work Notes Feature:** Partial functionality
|
|
- UI complete
|
|
- Emoji selection working
|
|
- Document selection working
|
|
- **Needs:** Backend API integration
|
|
|
|
3. **Backend Repository:** 70% setup
|
|
- Folder structure created
|
|
- Dependencies installed
|
|
- **Needs:** Database setup, API development
|
|
|

|
|
## ❌ What's NOT Complete (90%)
|
|
|
|
1. **Database:** 0% (not created yet)
|
|
2. **Redux Store:** 0% (not created)
|
|
3. **API Service Layer:** 0% (not configured)
|
|
4. **Form Validations:** 0%
|
|
5. **API Integration:** 0%
|
|
6. **Business Logic:** 0% (TAT calculations, workflows)
|
|
7. **Authentication:** 0% (SSO not integrated)
|
|
8. **All Backend APIs:** 0%
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## 🔐 Authentication Approach
|
|
|
|
### SSO Login (RE SSO Bridge)
|
|
- **No login/signup screens needed** (SSO handles authentication)
|
|
- Users authenticate with company credentials
|
|
- Auto-sync from Active Directory
|
|
- **Frontend work:** Minimal (1.5 days)
|
|
- **Backend work:** SSO integration (2 days)
|
|
|
|
**Figma Note:** No login/signup screens in Figma (not needed for SSO)
|
|

## 🎯 Core Features
|
|
|
|
### 1. Workflow Creation (Weeks 4-5)

|
|
- @mention user search for approvers/spectators
|
|
- Document upload (drag-drop, max 10MB)
|
|
- TAT calculation (working days vs calendar days)
|
|
|
|
### 2. Approval Actions (Weeks 6-7)
|
|
- Approve/reject with mandatory comments
|
|
- Multi-level approval flow
|
|
- TAT tracking with color-coded progress bars
|
|
- Automated reminders (80% TAT used)
|
|
- Breach alerts (100% TAT exceeded)
|
|
|
|
### 3. Collaboration (Week 8)
|
|
- Work notes (chat with @mentions)
|
|
- Emoji reactions
|
|
- Document preview and download
|
|
- Real-time notifications
|
|
|
|
### 4. Dashboard & Analytics (Week 9)
|
|
- Statistics and charts

|
|
- Search and filters
|
|

## ⚠️ Reality Check
|
|
|
|
### Common Misconception:
|
|
"Frontend is 80% done because UI is extracted from Figma"
|
|
|
|
### Reality:
|
|
- UI extraction = 20% of total frontend work
|
|
- 80% UI done = 16% of frontend complete
|
|
- Still need: Redux (20%), API integration (30%), validations (20%), testing (10%)
|
|
|
|
### Impact:
|
|
- Initial estimate: 6-8 weeks
|
|
- Realistic estimate: 10 weeks
|
|
- **Reason:** UI is just visual shell, needs 84% more work for functionality
|
|

|
## 🚨 Risks & Dependencies
|
|
|
|
### High Risk:
|
|
1. **SSO Integration:** Awaiting final confirmation and SSO details
|
|
2. **TAT Calculation:** Complex logic for working days
|
|
3. **Multi-level Approvals:** Complex state machine
|
|
4. **Backend-Frontend Sync:** Frontend blocked without APIs
|
|
|
|
### Mitigation:
|
|
1. SSO: Can build temporary standard login if delayed (3-4 days)
|
|
2. TAT: Write comprehensive unit tests
|
|
3. Approvals: Thorough testing of all scenarios
|
|
4. Sync: Daily standups, clear API documentation
|
