Analyze how workflow processes can streamline tasks by automating non-interactive operations and organizing interactive tasks that require user input. Gain insights into task management, status monitoring, and efficient completion through structured workflows.
Select a workflow to access the list of workflow tasks for that workflow.
Workflow processes may include interactive tasks that a user must complete or non-interactive tasks.
Interactive Tasks
These tasks require user input and manual completion. Interactive tasks are assigned to one or more contributors who are responsible for completing the task. Interactive tasks must have one or more supervisors assigned, who are responsible for ensuring the task is complete. Tasks can optionally have an owner who can also show that a task has been completed.
All interactive tasks include an additional field called Info Text, where you can provide further instructions, information, or reference materials, such as images and URL links, using the HTML editor. Use the HTML editor to format your instructions as needed.
A user can view a list of interactive tasks assigned in the Workflow Task List module.
HTML Editors for Interactive Workflow Tasks
The ToDo workflow task contains an HTML format editor. This allows you to create workflow ToDo instructions that are formatted with font styles, bullets, images, and even URL links.
All interactive tasks contain a field called Info Text that leverages the HTML format editor so that additional instruction, information, or reference material can be provided.
Non-Interactive Tasks
These tasks automatically start and complete without user intervention once they have been started.
For example, tasks that automatically export data to a file or log messages, as workflow tasks are completed.
Workflow Task Status Colors
Within the Workflow Editor, color coding indicates the status of active workflow tasks and subprocesses.
Legend
The color codes in a workflow indicate:
| Color | Status | Example |
| Green | Completed |  |
| Blue | In Progress |  |
| Orange | Upcoming |  |
| Red | Overdue |  |
| Purple | Failed |  |
| Grey | Non-Interactive task that is not started. |  |
