Starting Processes Without an Object Reference
Tasks to be completed can be assigned or forwarded to yuuvis® RAD client users via processes. In addition to processes with an object reference, you can also start processes without an object reference in yuuvis® RAD. Typical processes without an object reference include, for example, vacation requests.
Processes without an object reference are not part of the scope of the standard functionality of yuuvis® RAD client and are therefore not provided by the administrator. Depending on your rights in the system, you can (or cannot) start processes without an object reference.
-
Click the Start process icon on the yuuvis® RAD bar.
The start process menu appears. All processes without an object reference for which you are the initiator or process owner are listed here.
-
Select the desired process by clicking with the mouse.
A start form in which you can enter further task details (task texts, deadlines, editors, etc.) may be displayed or the process start is confirmed by a message, depending on the process configuration.
The started process is shown in the Inbox in Main menu where you can continue to edit it. It may also be the case that the first work item is shown in the inboxes of other users, depending on the configuration for the process.
The progress of the process will be shown in the process view. You open the process view via the Main menu icon > My processes.
Depending on the type of process, various other work items follow, which are described in the relevant company documentation.
Messages related to tasks from processes are shown in the recipient's inbox (see Inbox). All processes without an object reference for which you are the initiator or process owner are listed here. You become the initiator when you start a process; you are the process owner as long as you have taken on a work item.
