Systems and methods for intelligent forms automation

A system for intelligent forms automation, the system comprising:

• a processor;
• a non-transitory computer-readable medium;
• and
• stored instructions translatable by the processor for:
• receiving a request or submission involving a non-native form, wherein the non-native form has a previously added non-visible hidden field comprising a globally unique identifier (GUID) shared by a plurality of other non-native forms, wherein the GUID identifies a first native form of a plurality of different native forms stored on a server, the first native form processable by the form processing engine prior to the non-native form being made accessible by end users, wherein each non-native form is associated with a respective workflow;
• locating the previously added field in the non-native form;
• extracting the GUID that identifies the first native form of the plurality of native forms from the previously added field and form data from data fields of the non-native form;
• retrieving, utilizing the GUID, a virtual copy of the first native form identified by the GUID;
• populating the virtual copy of the first native form with the form data from the data fields of the non-native form by mapping the data fields of the non-native form with data fields from the native form;
• and
• processing the virtual copy of the first native form according to the respective workflow associated with the first non-native form.

A computer program product for intelligent forms automation, the computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions translatable by a processor of an intelligent forms automation platform for:

• receiving a request or submission involving a non-native form, wherein the non-native form has a previously added non-visible hidden field comprising a globally unique identifier (GUID) shared by a plurality of other non-native forms, wherein the GUID identifies a first native form of a plurality of different native forms stored on a server, the first native form processable by the form processing engine prior to the non-native form being made accessible by end users, wherein each non-native form is associated with a respective workflow;
• locating the previously added field in the non-native form;
• extracting the GUID that identifies the first native form of the plurality of native forms from the previously added field and form data from data fields of the non-native form;
• retrieving, utilizing the GUID, a virtual copy of the first native form identified by the GUID;
• populating the virtual copy of the first native form with the form data from the data fields of the non-native form by mapping the data fields of the non-native form with data fields from the native form;
• and
• processing the virtual copy of the first native form according to the respective workflow associated with the first non-native form.
