Starting Workflows
The inbox labeled Startable workflows lists all workflows which can be started by you and all other users who have the same role.
A workflow can be started by double-clicking on it, by selecting the matching entry in the context menu, or by dragging objects onto the workflow. This option is also available in variant administration for active and inactive variants of an object. The object will then be added to the workflow file. Whether this is possible or even necessary is defined in the workflow model.
You can also define in the workflow model whether a workflow with the object can be launched in the record via an object's context menu.
When you select a startable workflow, you can create a link on the desktop area of the object search by selecting Add to desktop in the context menu:
You can choose whether to also create a link in the ribbon and whether to transfer the currently selected objects to the workflow file when starting the workflow via a link.
Workflows can be configured to start when data from an e-mail message from Microsoft Outlook is imported.
On the Startable workflows tab, you can also list workflows which can be started with enaio® client that are, however, configured to be launched from enaio® capture.
When you start the program, the first work item is placed in the inbox of all users with the appropriate role and can be executed.
If you started a workflow, it can be configured so that the first work item is opened immediately if you are allowed to execute it.
The active work item of the workflow is shown on the Current workflows tab. You can use the context menu to see which users are shown the work item in their inbox and display the contents of the record.
If you have the appropriate system roles, you can assign one or multiple work items to other users and remove personalization.
You can also access process details:
In this dialog, users with the appropriate system roles can abort workflows and stop or resume work items. Access rights and system roles are assigned by your administrator.
The activity list can also be saved as a file and printed.
