Systems and methods for workflow visualization in a multi-tenant management platform

A system for workflow visualization in a multi-tenant database system, the system comprising:

• a communication interface receiving a plurality of user activity items that are related to a shared work item among the plurality of tenants;
• a memory storing a plurality of processor-executable instructions;
• and
• a process executing the plurality of processor-executable instructions to perform operations comprising:
• generating, from the plurality of user activity items, a first sequence of status indicators representing a workflow progress of the shared work item over a plurality of time instances;
• determining a first subset of the plurality of user activity items that are related to at least one sub-item reflected in the first sequence of status indicators;
• generating, from the first subset of the user activity items, a second sequence of status indicators representing a second workflow progress of the at least one sub-item over the plurality of time instances;
• generating a first branch of visual elements representing the first sequence of status indicators along a horizontal axis;
• generating a second branch of visual elements stemming from at least one visual element from the first branch, representing the second sequence of status indicators along a vertical axis;
• and
• presenting, via a user interface, the first branch of visual elements representing the first sequence of status indicators and the second branch of visual elements representing the second sequence of status indicators in a visualization structure.

A processor-readable non-transitory storage medium storing a plurality of processor-executable instructions of workflow visualization in a multi-tenant database system, the instructions being executed by a processor to perform operations comprising:

• receiving, via a communication interface, a plurality of user activity items that are related to a shared work item among the plurality of tenants;
• generating, from the plurality of user activity items, a first sequence of status indicators representing a workflow progress of the shared work item over a plurality of time instances;
• determining a first subset of the plurality of user activity items that are related to at least one sub-item reflected in the first sequence of status indicators;
• generating, from the first subset of the user activity items, a second sequence of status indicators representing a second workflow progress of the at least one sub-item over the plurality of time instances;
• generating a first branch of visual elements representing the first sequence of status indicators along a horizontal axis;
• generating a second branch of visual elements stemming from at least one visual element from the first branch, representing the second sequence of status indicators along a vertical axis;
• and
• presenting, via a user interface, the first branch of visual elements representing the first sequence of status indicators and the second branch of visual elements representing the second sequence of status indicators in a visualization structure.
