Updating workflow nodes in a workflow

A system, comprising:

• at least one computer readable storage device including a workflow comprised of nodes and workflow paths connecting the nodes and a workflow modification having workflow modification instances providing changes to nodes in the workflow;
• an analyzer program;
• a workflow program enabled to perform operations, the operations including:
• processing user input at one node in a workflow comprised of nodes and workflow paths connecting the nodes, wherein the user provides user input to traverse through at least one workflow path to reach a current node, wherein the current node comprises the node in the workflow at which the user is currently working;
• and
• transmitting information on the current node or a node following the current node to the analyzer program in response to processing at the current node in the workflow;
• and
• wherein the analyzer program is enabled to perform operations, the operations including:
• processing the workflow modification to determine whether there is at least one workflow modification instance providing modifications in the workflow to at least one subsequent node following the current node over at least one workflow path from the current node;
• and
• transmitting to the workflow program an update including modifications from the determined at least one workflow modification instance to the at least one subsequent node in response to determining the modifications.

A method, comprising:

• processing, by a workflow program, user input at one node in a workflow comprised of nodes and workflow paths connecting the nodes, wherein the user provides user input to traverse through at least one workflow path to reach a current node, and wherein the current node comprises the node in the workflow at which the user is currently working;
• transmitting, by the workflow program, information on the current node or a node following the current node to an analyzer in response to processing at the current node in the workflow;
• maintaining a workflow modification having workflow modification instances providing changes to nodes in the workflow;
• processing, by the analyzer, workflow modification to determine whether there is at least one workflow modification instance providing modifications in the workflow to at least one subsequent node following the current node over at least one workflow path from the current node;
• and
• transmitting to the workflow program, by the analyzer, an update including modifications from the determined at least one workflow modification instance to the at least one subsequent node in response to determining the modifications.
