ZFlow workflow activities are quite flexible and configurable and give extensive control to how a workflow activity should be completed. Following are the different configurations of a workflow activity
Performers
You can set the roles that would perform the activity
Options
Options are preconfigured conditional settings that can be selected/defined to make sure the workflow activity behaves a certain way.
Complete Condition
Completed condition option allows configuring the completion of an activity.
- Any Performer
- All Performers
- One Performer Per Role
- Process Admin
- Auto
Possible Results
An activity can have one or more possible results. These results show up as buttons when performers complete the activity. An important aspect of Result definition is the transition. Transition defines the activity that the workflow will move to when a particular result is selected.
Add a Result
Removing an existing Result
Timeout
Timeout configuration of an activity will determine what should happen if an activity is not completed within the time limit.
Pre-processing
Pre-processing can be used to set up notification flags right before the process is set to be executed or approved. You can set reminders with a time limit in the form of days as well.
Post-processing
Post-processing can be used to set up notification flags right after the process executed or approved. You can set reminders with a time limit in the form of days as well. You can set custom notifications to be sent to specific role holders as well.
Conditions
The conditions tab for the workflow inside denotes the various conditional values that can be set for the side. For example for the condition shown below, you have the PR value set to greater than 30000.
This means that the workflow condition will execute only if the condition is met. You can set such similar conditions for various other parameters
