activity requires a certain action by LN or an LN user: Manual activity A task that cannot be automated Business process A hierarchical expansion of the business process Application A program that can run on the client or server and is
defined within a component release File-based (client) A file for which, based on the file extension, the
associated application on the client is started Sending trigger An attached business process that is started without user
interaction
Control Type An activity in the business process that represents a decision
moment. The designer of the business process defines with the help of static
and dynamic conditions for the outgoing transitions the route through the
process (which of the succeeding activities will be carried out and in which
order). The different types of control activities are, for example, XOR, OR,
and AND. Application The function depends on the selection you made in the Activity Type. The
following selections enable the field: Business Process (field description is Code) Select the business process. Application (field description is Application) Select the application. Argument The function depends on the selection you made in the Activity Type field. The following selections activate the field: - Application (field description is Argument) Starts an
application with the given arguments.
- File Based (Client) (field description is File) Starts for a file the associated
application on the client, based on the file extension.
Examples - A path and file name. For example '
c:\data\memo.txt' - A workflow attribute which at run-time is substituted by
the actual value of the workflow attribute. To use a workflow attribute, a
dollar sign ($) must be placed in front of the workflow attribute name. For
example '
c:\data\$filename '. If the value of the worklfow attribute $filename is 'memo.txt', the outcome will be 'c:\data\memo.txt'.
