Execution actions

Previous  Top  Next

Use the following options to execute or perform other operations with the activity:

 

 

A

The activity actions allow you to execute the current activity and send the flow to another element of the process. When performing an activity action, the system can automatically perform some operations such as running an external application, sending an e-mail notification, or enabling a timer event, among others. Each action refers to an output flow of the activity being performed.

 

Before clicking on this option, make sure all the necessary fields on the activity data screen are properly filled out. Depending on the configuration set in the activity action data during process modeling (SE Process), filling out some fields or the association of some objects may be mandatory, so that the activity is successfully executed.

 

B

The Previous step action allows the process flow to return to the previous activity without the need for the return action modeling. In order to execute this action, first, it is necessary to fill the Comments field with an explanation and click on the respective option. At this point, the previous activity will become enabled so that the responsible user executes it again.

 

This action will only be displayed if the "Disable action for sending record back to previous activity" option is not checked in the activity data (Configurations Instance), during the process modeling. If the option is unchecked, this action might not be displayed when the activity under execution is the first activity of the instance or a sub-activity, or when there is a sub-process or a gateway in the return path between the activity under execution and the previous activity.

This action will not be displayed if, in the previous activity, there is an action that changes the status of the action plan.

 

C

When an activity is returned, its executor may perform the following actions:

Undo execution: This action cancels the execution of subsequent activities of the activity in question, allowing a new execution to be performed. That is, when you perform this action, the activity screen is reloaded with the action options that appear when the activity is enabled for the first time. Remember that when performing this operation, it is necessary to enter an explanation in the Comments section.

Resend: Allows you to send the activity back to the same flow point, in which it was found before, without the need to undo its execution

 

D

This action allows the responsible user to Delegate the execution of the activity to another user. To do that, it is first necessary to fill out the Comments field with an explanation and click on the respective option. At this point, a screen to select the user who will take the responsibility for the execution of the activity will be displayed. When saving the selection, the activity will be enabled so that its new responsible executes it.

 

This action will only be displayed if the "Allow activity to be assigned to another user" option has been checked (Configurations Instance), during the process modeling.

Remember that the delegation of an activity may be restricted to users that have the same functional role as the current activity executor, to users of a specific functional role, or to users from a specific team. This configuration is set on the activity data screen (Configurations Instance), during the process modeling. If no restriction has been configured, then the activity can be delegated to any user.

 

E

This action allows you to finish a sub-activity execution.
