Creating a Workflow

To create a Workflow:

1. Navigate to the Studio screen.

2. Click Create Workflow. An empty Workflow displays, with a single empty Step.

   

3. Click Jobs in the Toolbar to display the Jobs overlay.

   

4. Add Jobs to the Workflow by dragging and dropping them from the Jobs overlay. You can drag a Job into an existing step or create a new Step.

   • If this is the first Job you are adding to the Workflow, drag and drop the Job onto the default empty Step.

     

   • If you want to add the Job to an existing Step, drag the Job to just above or below one of the Jobs in the Step.

     

   • If you want to add a new Step before or after an existing Step, drag the Job to the right or left of that Step.

     

5. Configure the Workflow definition. This part of the procedure is similar to the procedure for configuring a Job definition.

6. Conditions let you control when a Job runs. If desired, add an Event Condition or a Time Condition to the Workflow definition.

7. Decision Points let you control the execution of a Step or Workflow based on status, time, or a REL expression. If desired, add Decision Points to the Workflow definition.

8. To view execution paths for Decision Points, turn the View Details switch on.

9. To scale the diagram up or down, use the scale controls at lower right.

10. To save the Workflow, click Save.

11. To run the Workflow with the Run Wizard, click Run.
