Control Room: Deploy... Execute... Monitor...
Control Room is where it all begins – deployment, execution and monitoring processes and Buddies alike! Modern and web-based UI makes journey to automation a fun-filled experience. What more, you can share the processes, manage your tasks assigned by Buddies, thus creating great collaborative environment.
Let me walk you through major features of Control Room:
- Administration: Control Room allows managing users with access to automations by way of assigning various roles to them controlling what they can access. User can use out-of-the-box available roles or create own custom role per organization requirements. Control Room permits managing licenses to client tools and configuring automation settings.

Triggers:
Control Room allows users to define triggers to execute automations. Triggers help users execute automation based on one of the conditions:
- Time – execute a particular time
- Email – execute when new email arrives
- File System – execute when specified file related event happens
- Job Queue: Apart from listing the jobs as name suggests, Job Queue in Control Room allows users to decide execution strategy for Buddies. Users can choose whether Buddies could be executed statically on specific smart stations, or dynamically executed on chosen workstation based on the availability. Users can thus better utilize smart stations depending on load.
- Time – execute a particular time
- Email – execute when new email arrives
- File System – execute when specified file related event happens
- Smart Stations: Control Room makes users life easier by providing a very simple yet powerful way to add smart stations to execute automations. These smart stations can be a desktop, server machines or even virtual machines. Once the user adds a smart station to Control Room, it allows the user to assign it for execution of Buddies.
- Audit: Control Room audit features allows users to view all the jobs, logs associated with them, statuses. The logs provide chronological information that a given job has gone through. They provide you all the information required to find the problem, if any, with the job and therefore get quick resolution.
Control Room acts as a one stop control manager for all your automation needs – ranging from user management to management of automation. It is where realization of automation defined in Process Designer takes place. IntelliBuddies Control Room is a centralized management portal from where you can easily deploy, assign tasks, schedule, and manage your Buddies.

- Process Instance: A process instance refers to an execution instance of a BPA process. You can monitor the status of the processes initiated by you and also look at all the data and tasks associated with the current instance.
- My Tasks: The "My Tasks" page is crucial as it is a centralized hub for managing and tracking workflow tasks. This tab provides users a clear overview of pending, in-progress, and completed tasks within automated business processes.
