To use workflows as a mechanism to approve changes, you must first create and configure them. All actions are performed in the “Workflows” section.

Before you start:

• Create an account with access to the “Workflows” section.

To set up a workflow:

1. Create a process. Depending on the type of process creation, you must either use a template/prepared file, or fill in all the data manually.
2. Customize the created process. Assign the process to the required entities/lookup entities. If necessary, correct the process diagram and set the indexed variables.
3. Check all the main process parameters:
   • User roles specified in the process must be created in the system and have the same logical names.
   • The process must be assigned to the required entities/lookup entities.
   • A trigger to start the process must correspond to the process purpose. For example, only processes that validate a record when it is created, loaded, or edited are suitable for the “Insert record” trigger.
   • If indexed variables are used, then they must be correctly passed through all steps of the process and take values ​​that correspond to their type.

A business process can be configured for events:

• creating a record;
• record update;
• record recovery;
• recovery of the time intervals in the record.

Other events require the creation of a custom Pipeline.

If you need to implement a custom workflow then add the process description from the loaded libraries to the list of executors.
