Cranium Signage are a signage company based in Auckland, New Zealand. They approached us with a need to have a simple and easy to read reports as well as a seamless integration between the internal systems they used, WorkflowMax, Trello and Slack
WorkflowMax is a very powerful management tool. However, our client’s frustration was the lack of useful reporting from within the system. The data is there but to access it, manual exports and digging of data had to be performed to extract anything useful from the system. Getting this information was time consuming and tedious.
By creating an API connection to WorkFlowMax, I was able to put this information at the clients fingertips and create a live BI report that the customer could interact and make key decisions in real time. All members of the team could now have instant access to this information.
The secondary part of the project was to integrate WorkflowMax with Trello, to give an easier operational overview of where there projects were in the production pipeline.
The integration included:
Creating New Cards:
Automatically create a new card in Trello when a job is created in Workflowmax. Save time and avoid errors by pushing the job directly into Trello.
Updating Job Status:
Easily update a Workflowmax job status in Trello by either moving a card to a specific list or adding a specific label.
Jobs can also be moved into a specific list or a label added if a job state is changed in Workflowmax.
Updating Due Dates
Sync due dates between WorkFlowMax and Trello Cards. Updating in one will automatically update the other.
