Designing Workstream Processes

A workstream process enables Task Web client users to execute a series of sequenced order tasks through a wizard-like interface. When a process, or subprocess, is defined as a workstream, Task Web client users flow from task to task after each transition without being returned to the worklist to initiate the next transition. Instead, the next task is invoked automatically, eliminating the need to manually navigate through the worklist to retrieve the next task.

Workstreams are designed by business analysts or process modelers in much the same way standard processes are designed, using the Process editor. To make a process a workstream process, right-click the Start node in the Process editor and select Show Properties to display the Properties view. Then, click the Workstream property and change the value to True.
