ABSTRACT:
A process builder for a system of routing electronic documents and a method for using the same are provided. The process builder receives an electronic document having programmable features. The process builder determines a number of attributes and form fields from the electronic document. Data input is received by the process builder from an electronic document author via a graphical user interface. The process builder defines logical conditions for one or more of the form fields and attributes based on the received data input, and combines the logical conditions into logical expressions. The process builder then translates the logical expressions into program code and inserts the generated program code into the electronic document.
