Workbench - Business Process Workflow Editor

The Business Process Workflow Editor Workbench (pdwfl8120m000) is a graphical editor to visualize the steps of a business process graphically for tracking its progress. A business process is an instance of a workflow and relates to one or more objects such as PLM Items or PLM Documents. The business process steps are of a certain type, such as user, group, check-in, check-out, send to production, and notification. A blue-dot indicates the current tasks in the business process. The editor allows authorized users to modify the business process while it is in progress. Actions such as skip, delete, or the introduction of new steps can be performed in the active business process.

The workbench can be activated from the Business Process session after marking a specified business process. If you mark a business process step in the graphical flow, the details of the business process steps or tasks are shown on the right side of the screen. With the Edit option, changes can be made to the steps of the business process that have not been run.

The business process editor offers the same options as the workflow template editor, but these are specific to only one instance. Any changes made in the Business Process Workflow Editor only apply to the business process it relates to and not to any other business process.
