Designing Workflows
In UIM, you can add workflow templates to engineering work orders and business interactions. Workflow templates define an ordered sequence of activities that must be completed. For example, a workflow template could define the activities required for an access site rollout.
In Design Studio, you design workflow templates by creating Engineering Work Order specifications that include Process specifications. Process specifications include Task specifications and Checklist specifications.
Note:
The engineering work orders you create in Design Studio are not the same as engineering work orders in UIM. Engineering work orders in Design Studio are used as containers for Process, Task, and Checklist specifications. Engineering work orders and the specifications they contain become workflow templates in UIM.
When designing workflows, see the following topics:
