Abstract:
The embodiments herein disclose methods and systems for patent specification development with integrated workflow and template rule management that enable real-time review and development of patent specifications in an efficient manner. Embodiments herein achieve real-time review and development of a patent specification by allowing a patent specification to be an aggregation of individual units that can be developed independently and reviewed without having to wait for a whole patent specification document to be ready. During creation of a project, the system allows for creation of rules for defining the workflow of any project. Users are allowed to predefine workflow rules and at the time of creating a project, user may choose a workflow rule to be applied to the project. The user may also create template rules and workflows based on plurality of criteria.
