Introduction to Workflow Processes

A Workflow Process uses:

• Attributes equivalent to Fields
• Tables
• Resources for example: database, email, or RESTful resources
• Nodes are a single step in the process; the types of node include:
  • Start Node the beginning of the Workflow Process.
  • End Node  the end of the Workflow Process.
  • Interactive Task Node represents a form to be completed by a user.  
  • System Task Node represents automatic tasks.
  • Decision Node determines the route of the next step depending on the logic provided.
  • Split Node represents a point where processes can be executed concurrently.
  • Subprocess Node  represents another process.
• Links connects two nodes; the direction of the link shows the flow of the process.
• Input and output parameters are used to pass data between the stages of the Workflow Process.
