Adding a Task Step
A task step is a type of workflow process step that starts a task UI from a workflow process. If a workflow process calls a task UI, then Siebel CRM does the following:
- Adds this task UI to the user Inbox.
- Sets the workflow process state to waiting until the user finishes this task UI.
- When the task UI finishes, Siebel CRM resumes the workflow process at the next step that is immediately downstream of the task UI step.
To add a task step
- Make sure the task UI that this workflow process must call is already defined.
For information about defining a task UI, see Siebel Business Process Framework: Task UI Guide.
- In the Object Explorer, click Workflow Process.
- In the Workflow Processes list, locate the workflow process you must modify, and then set the Workflow Mode property to Long Running Flow.
- Right-click the workflow process you modified in Step 3, and then click Edit Workflow Process.
- Add a task step to the workflow process.
For more information, see Adding a Step to a Workflow Process.
- Make sure the step you added in Step 5 is still chosen in the Process Designer.
- In the Properties window, In the Task Name property, choose the task UI that this workflow process must run.
After you define a task step in the Process Designer and set the Task Name property, you can double-click the task step to open the Task Editor.
- Make sure the Inactive property is set to FALSE.
- In the MVPW, add new input, output, and recipient arguments.
