 Assignment of a Workflow Template to the Process

Use

You use the workflow template to make the following settings for your process:

  • You use the workflow definition in the Workflow Builder to determine which process steps follow one other.

  • You use the rules for determining processors to set which user receives which process step for processing.

  • You use the standard tasks that the individual workflow steps are based on to determine the following:

    • which form is used in which process step

    • which interface functions (for example, pushbuttons Save Draft or Withdraw Process ) are available in the individual process steps
