Work item text

The work item that represents this step is displayed with the work item text in the workflow inbox, in the work item selection hit list and in the workflow log. The work item text can only be changed in the task definition.

Step-specific tab page for work item display

An additional tab page is added to the work item display. This tab page is displayed in addition to the three tab pages Basic data, Activities and Available objects as the first tab page of the work item display. This additional tab page only appears when work items that represent this step are displayed. This tab page can be used, for example, to:

·        Display important information from the current process, which does not appear in the work item display as standard.

·        Provide functions that the end user has to execute often.

·        Create a customer-specific 'look and feel'.
