When a new ''[[glossary|workflow]]'' is created, a set of 'legacy' ''[[glossary|workflow statuses]]'' are generated. For ''[[glossary|workflows]] ''with <u>Associated Entity</u> "Ticket", the initial set of ''[[glossary|workflow statuses]]'' is the following.  
  
Type.  itmSUITE® call it ''[[Glossary|Ticket type]]''.
 
*  Status ''[[Glossary|Workflow status]]''
 
*  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.
 
* Which one of the idenfied ''[[Glossary|Workflow status]]' is a Final Status?''
 
 
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 17 ''[[Glossary|roles]]''. ''[[Glossary|Roles]]'' can be:
 
* Static , Application Level type
 
* 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]]''

=== Workflow Status ===
 
 
itmSUITE® enable the user to create how many status is needed to deploy is workflow. When the user create the workflow, the system create for him 9-legacy status:
 
 
* Default
 
* Opened
 
* Defined
 
* Runinng
 
* In Charge
 
* Completed
 
* Closed
 
* Reopened
 
* Cancelled
 
 
this status are called legacy, because the system act in a particular way when they are reached by ''[[Glossary|ticket ]]''
 
 
The ''[[Glossary | Administrator]]'' can create others ''[[Glossary|status]]'' that will be used to drown the desire workflow
 
 
=== Define a Transition  ===
 
 
Transition are the connection between ''[[Glossary|status]]''. Definie a transition means:
 
* select starting ''[[Glossary|status]]'' , say Defualt
 
* select ending ''[[Glossary|status]]'' , say Opened
 
* choose the ''[[Glossary|role]]'' authorized to perform this transtion, e.g. Creator
 
We can create a One-way transition or bi-directional transition.
 
 
Many [[Glossary|roles]] can be enabled to perform a single transition.
 
 
=== Form Designer  ===
 
 
User interact with the workflow via ''[[Glossary|Ticket form]]''. To create a Ticket form the ''[[Glossary|administator]]'' can :
 
 
* Identify the necessary standard field
 
* Create custom field
 
* Create Form layout
 
 
Form designer , think a form as a blank page, than the ''[[Glossary|administator]]'' can create Sections, and devide it in columns and compose the page inserting the fields.
 
 
 
 
=== Grant Management  ===
 
 
''[[Glossary | Administrator]]'' can keep Visible or Mandatory some field based on ''[[Glossary | Ticket Status]]''and
 
''[[Glossary | Resource role]]''
 
 
For example, ''[[Glossary | Ticket creator]]'' see the necessary fields to define an issue, but ''[[Glossary| Service desk operator]]'' that keep in charge the issue has available the first set of fields plus the once necessary to Categorize and Analyse the issue. When the ''[[Glossary | Ticket ]]'' will be completed the ''[[Glossary | Ticket creator]]'' should have the orignal set of fields plus the solution.

Workflow statuses are key components of a workflow and they generally indicate a condition of the process. For example, the status "Closed" generally indicates that the workflow occurrence is completed and no other activity can be performed.

Workflow statuses are managed in the Associated Op. Statuses tab of the workflow management forms.

When a new workflow is created, a set of 'legacy' workflow statuses are generated. For workflows with Associated Entity "Ticket", the initial set of workflow statuses is the following.


Status Note
Default
Opened
Closed
Completed
Cancelled
