In this screen you can register and change transitions between process statuses.Open screen in browser Open Form

A transition specifies a valid change of the status of a process to a different status. This allows workflows to be defined.

Complex transitions can also be enforced with an additional business rule.

Maximum Limit

Maximum value of the limit of user involvement in relation to this process, project, organization or the involvement of the role (the first of these two which has a value is used), to allow this state transition.

Automatically Try to Set Next Status

Analyses

Building workflow based on process status transitions is flexible, but sometimes it is difficult determining which steps are run with trying to achieve the next status automatically. With a manual action, several steps at once can be put with any associated actions indirectly through additional business rules. The steps - including automatically made steps - afterwards can be found in the screen Logging.
