Head start

What Dokuflex ships ready and ProcessMaker does not

The difference is not the engine, it is the starting point. Dokuflex includes a library of 48+ complete processes —form, flow, rules, deadlines, roles and documents— that you activate in minutes and tailor afterwards. These are not sample diagrams or blank boards: they are processes that run, and they arrive with the regulation already solved (GDPR, NIS2, AI Act, whistleblowing, VERI*FACTU) and with local legal variants per country.

HR and people. Employee onboarding and offboarding, holidays, absence and leave, working-time records, internal training.
Compliance and ethics line. Whistleblowing channel (EU Directive 2019/1937), criminal-risk prevention, KYC and due diligence, AI Act system register, non-conformities and CAPA.
Data protection. GDPR data-subject requests within one month, records of processing activities, breach notification to the supervisory authority in 72 h, processor agreements, consent.
Finance and invoicing. B2B/B2G e-invoicing, accounts-payable approval, expenses and per-diems, contract lifecycle management (CLM), archiving with legal retention.
Procurement and suppliers. Purchase requisition and order, supplier qualification, supplier contract signing, food-supply contracts (AICA).
Safety and prevention. Occupational risk assessment, workplace accidents, NIS2/DORA incidents with the clock running, identity and access, ENS and ISO 27001.
