Workflow Definitions¶
Workflows allow you to define multi-step processes for managing element reviews, approvals, and other structured procedures within your project.
Overview¶
A workflow definition consists of a series of steps that entities (elements, tasks, RFIs, etc.) move through. Each step can represent an action, an approval gate, or a final state.
Creating a Workflow¶
- Navigate to Workflow Definitions in the admin sidebar
- Click Create
- Fill in the workflow details:
- Name - A descriptive name for the workflow
- Description - Purpose and usage notes
- Steps - Define the sequence of steps
Workflow Steps¶
Each workflow can contain multiple steps with different types:
| Step Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Action | A task that needs to be completed |
| Approval | Requires explicit approval from an assigned user |
| Final | Terminal state (e.g., Approved, Rejected, Completed) |
Managing Workflows¶
From the workflow definitions list, you can:
- Edit - Modify workflow name, description, or steps
- Activate/Deactivate - Control whether the workflow is available for use
- Delete - Remove unused workflow definitions
Permissions¶
Creating and managing workflow definitions requires admin access to the project.
