Workflow Administration

Civic Platform provides a graphical tool (Workflow Designer) and a legacy ‘Classic’ tool for designing workflows. The Classic Workflow administration tool follows the standard configuration styles in Civic Platform Classic. Workflow Designer is a graphical design tool much easier to use. Workflow Designer contains almost all the functions in the Classic Workflow administration tool, but gives you the convenience to do everything visually. Some workflow related administration functions work with both Workflow Designer and the Classic Workflow administration tool.
