Steps in a Human Task

A Human task in a workflow contains one or more steps. A step is a metadata object that defines the flow of data through the Human task. The steps determine the types of task instance that the Human task creates and identifies the users who can work on the task instances.

The workflow developer can add the following steps to a Human task:

Exception step: An exception step generates a correct exceptions task instance in the Analyst tool.
Cluster step: A cluster step generates a correct duplicates task instance in the Analyst tool.
Review step: A review step generates a review exceptions task instance or a review duplicates task instance in the Analyst tool.

The following image shows the steps in a Human task in the Developer tool:

The Human task contains a start object, an exception step, a review step, and an end object.

When a Human task contains multiple steps, the exception records pass from one step to another. The developer who configures the workflow defines the sequence of the steps. Each step identifies a set of users. The users can log in to the Analyst tool and work on the task instances that the step defines.

The developer who configures the workflow can set access permissions for the Analyst tool users. The permissions can determine the columns of data that the users can view and the actions that the users can perform in the task instances. The developer can set access permissions on each step. The access permissions apply equally to all users who work on the task instances that the step defines.

By default, all users have full access to the data and the options in a task instance.
