Abstract
A computer program product that includes a computer useable storage medium to store a computer readable program that, when executed on a computer, causes the computer to perform operations, including operations to incorporate an entity specification into a business process in response to an input by a user, determine a multifunction printer (MFP) from a heterogeneous mix of MFPs for implementation of the business process, and generate an executable to execute on the MFP. The entity specification describes an element of a document and is associated with the business process. The MFP has an associated executable language and a graphical user interface (GUI) specification. The executable conforms to the executable language and the GUI specification, is generated from the entity specification and the business process, and performs the business process when executed by the MFP.
