itmSUITE® makes available a set of predefined ''[[glossary|workflows]]'' by means of ''[[glossary|workflow cartridges]]''. These preset ''[[glossary|workflows]]'' can be modified and new ''[[glossary|workflows]]'' can be added. All ''[[glossary|workflow]]''[[glossary|s]] can be exported and re-imported by means of ''[[glossary|workflow cartridges]]''.

What is a workflow?

is a process applied to a Service. Two main information’s we need to know when we speak about a workflow:
 
−
* Process implemented
 
−
* Services enabled.

What is a process?

This guide will go through the key steps needed to create a ''[[glossary|workflow]]'' from scratch, assuming the basic itmSUITE® configurations (''[[glossary|company]]'' and its related master data, ''[[glossary|services]]'', etc.) were previously completed (see [[itmSUITE® - Introduction to basic configuration#Introduction|Introduction to basic configuration]]).
−
A process is characterized by statues linked each other with transitions. Each transition can implement rules, transition rule, that enable the user to perform or not this transitions.
 
−
User interact with a process using an interface, form, and each field of the form can be used to compose a logical rule condition.  
 
  
−
Before starting to create a new Workflow we should identify if there is a process like the one we wants to create already developed on the system. If yes, we can add our service to an existing workflow.

If the our process has statues or form field or transition rules that are not implemented we have to create  new workflow.

−
* Each process is identify by a type.  itmSUITE® call it ''[[Glossary|Ticket type]]''.
+
* [[Workflow configuration steps - Grants|Grants]]
−
* Second step we need to think about status ''[[Glossary|Workflow status]]''
+
* [[Workflow configuration steps - Form|Forms]]
−
* Third, we need to think how ''[[Glossary|Workflow status]]'' are connecting. Is only a one direction transtion, from status A to B, or we can came back to A, bidirectional transition.

* [[Workflow configuration steps - ASM Views| ASM Views (optional)]]

* Fourth, once arrived in B we would like to towards C or B is Final Status?
+
* [[Workflow configuration steps - Decision matrixes|Decision matrixes (optional)]]
−
+
* [[Workflow configuration steps - Groups association to workflow|Groups association (optional)]]
−
Once we have drawn our process we have to think which ''[[Glossary|Resource]]'' , or better witch ''[[Glossary|Role]]'' can be enabled to execute the transition, Then we can design the Form and give a grant to the ''[[Glossary|Resource]]. ''

At workflow level a user can be configure with 18 ''[[Glossary|roles]]''. ''[[Glossary|Roles]]'' can be:

* Static , Application Level type

: [[More|[More]]]
−
* Dynamic , Project / Service or Workflow roles type

Static ''[[Glossary|Role]]'' are the once assigned to the user, Dynamic role are configured to the resource due to is belonging to a ''[[Glossary|Service]]'' or a ''[[Glossary|Solution Group]]'' or a ''[[Glossary|Client Organization Unit ]]''  or because the resource act as Creator of ''[[Glossary|Ticket]]''

A workflow is a business process, made of a sequence of activities transforming inputs into outputs with the aim to achieve specific outcomes. With itmSUITE® it is possible to support the execution of workflows by means of its embedded workflow engine.

itmSUITE® makes available a set of predefined workflows by means of workflow cartridges. These preset workflows can be modified and new workflows can be added. All workflows can be exported and re-imported by means of workflow cartridges.

This guide will go through the key steps needed to create a workflow from scratch, assuming the basic itmSUITE® configurations (company and its related master data, services, etc.) were previously completed (see Introduction to basic configuration).
