Abstract

A mainframe workflow creation method creates and manages managing workflow tasks in a mainframe workflow management system. The method includes activating a workflow creation engine in the mainframe workflow management system by a user of a computing device using a web dashboard, communicating with the mainframe workflow management system over a communication network, and creating workflow tasks corresponding to a mainframe workflow. The method also includes associating the workflow tasks with a mainframe workflow process, and selecting a target mainframe computing system from a plurality of target mainframe computing systems for execution of the mainframe workflow process. The method further includes transmitting the mainframe workflow process to the selected target mainframe computing system over the communication network, and executing the mainframe workflow process, including plurality of workflow tasks, by the selected target mainframe computing system.
