Transition Name is the name of the workflow transition which is displayed in the workflow screens. If the Transition Name section of the form is enabled, the system allows to enter the name of the workflow transition for the available business languages. The translation will be used, instead of Transition Name, according to the user chosen business language.

In the Enable Transition Notification it is possible to configure the messages to be sent to the user performing the workflow transition. This should be done for all the available business languages. It is also possible to define a specific condition which is used to trigger the message. By right clicking with the mouse on Right click to configure notification conditions with VCE the visual condition editor menu is made available to enter the desired triggering rule.

Creation User, Edit User, Creation Date and Edit Date are made available allowing the tracking of the transition workflow initial creation and last update.

Source Op Status and Target Op Status are two key parameters to define, respectively corresponding to the source and destination workflow statuses enabled by the workflow transition.

The Filter section allows to set the following key configuration matrix. It is possible to select the projects/services and/or the roles to be configured for the workflow transition.

The actual configuration is done on the final configuration matrix where it is possible to enable (checked boxes) or disable (unchecked boxes) the workflow transition for the roles and projects/services.
