Workflow Versus Non-Workflow

Business processes can be designed with or without workflows. A workflow specifies how a business process should proceed, from start to finish. Workflows define how records are routed and govern the behavior of each step in the business process. Each step uses the forms that were designed for it in uDesigner.

Most business processes will include a workflow or workflows; however, some business processes have a single purpose of storing data. These business processes are called non-workflow BPs. An example of a non-workflow BP is one or more forms that record contact and other general information about a company.
