System and method for executing parallel workflows

A method of executing parallel electronic workflows, the method executed by a server device having a communications module and comprising:

• receiving via the communications module, a request from a client device to add or change data for an entity;
• determining whether received data is associated with a plurality of products or services, each product or service having an independent electronic workflow;
• initiating, via the communications module, each of the plurality of independent electronic workflows of the plurality of products or services determined to be associated with the received data by interfacing with the plurality of independent electronic workflows on behalf of the client device;
• receiving, via the communications module, a plurality of inputs related to the request;
• determining, for each input, a corresponding independent electronic workflow, wherein the corresponding independent electronic workflow requires the input to advance towards completion of tasks comprised in the corresponding independent electronic workflow, and wherein at least one input has overlapping data required to advance multiple independent electronic workflows;
• interacting, via the communications module, with the plurality of independent electronic workflows, to advance each independent electronic workflow associated with the received data towards completion of tasks comprised in each corresponding independent electronic workflow based on the plurality of inputs in parallel;
• prior to executing an outcome of the plurality of independent electronic workflows, determining a result for the client device based on completed tasks of each corresponding independent electronic workflow;
• providing to the client device via the communications module, an indication of the result;
• and
• receiving a response to the indication, via the communications module, wherein when the response confirms execution of the outcome, the server device interfaces with the plurality of independent electronic workflows via the communications module to complete each corresponding independent electronic workflow to the outcome to add or change the data according to the request on behalf of the client device.

A non-transitory computer readable medium for executing parallel electronic workflows, the computer readable medium comprising computer executable instructions for:

• receiving via a communications module, a request from a client device to add or change data for an entity;
• determining whether received data is associated with a plurality of products or services, each product or service having an independent electronic workflow;
• initiating, via the communications module, each of the plurality of independent electronic workflows of the plurality of products or services determined to be associated with the received data by interfacing with the plurality of independent electronic workflows on behalf of the client device;
• receiving, via the communications module, a plurality of inputs related to the request;
• determining, for each input, a corresponding independent electronic workflow, wherein the corresponding independent electronic workflow requires the input to advance towards completion of tasks comprised in the corresponding independent electronic workflow, and wherein at least one input has overlapping data required to advance multiple independent electronic workflows;
• interacting, via the communications module with the plurality of independent electronic workflows, to advance each independent electronic workflow associated with the received data towards completion of tasks comprised in each corresponding independent electronic workflow based on the plurality of inputs in parallel;
• prior to executing an outcome of the plurality of independent electronic workflows, determining a result for the client device based on completed tasks of each corresponding independent electronic workflow;
• providing to the client device via the communications module, an indication of the result;
• and
• receiving a response to the indication via the communications module, wherein when the response confirms execution of the outcome, the server device interfaces with the plurality of independent electronic workflows via the communications module to complete each corresponding independent electronic workflow to the outcome to add or change the data according to the request on behalf of the client device.
