About Workflows and Workflow Packs

Policy Planner and Policy Optimizer are workflow-based applications, and require that you upload a workflow we created before you can work tickets.

One workflow can have numerous instances, each with a different user group and permission assignment.

Open the Workflows Page

To open the Workflows page, on the toolbar, click Workflow > Workflows.

Workflows List

The following table defines the values in the Workflows table. The order listed is ascending by Name, but can be sorted by any column.
