How to Create a Workflow

Step 1 Creating a Workflow Form

Select an app and create a workflow form. Then change the form name to Leave Application.

Step 2 Designing the Workflow Form

1. Determine the Field Type

2. Complete the Application Form

Select Member from Member & Department Fields, and select Date&Time, Number, and Multi Line from Basic Fields in the left panel.

On the Workflow page, you can modify the node names as follows.

Step 4 Setting Node Properties

Configure the field permissions and approvers for each node.

For the two approval nodes, go to Node Properties > Approver and select Jodoo Official and Joe respectively from Members in the pop-up window Dept. & Member List.

After the configuration is completed, click Save.

Step 5 Enabling the Workflow

After the workflow settings are complete, click Enable to enable the current version.

Until now, you have created your first workflow. In further steps, you can allocate permissions for members and view your workflow in Tasks. Let's explore these features!

How to Run Your Workflow

Configure permissions for members. For example, to allocate the permissions for initiating a workflow and viewing all workflows, you can follow the steps below:

Go to Publish > To Members, click Add Member, select Siran from Members in the pop-up window Dept. & Member List, click OK, select Initiate now from the drop-down list below Member Permission, and click OK.

Follow the same steps to allocate the permission View all workflows to Siran.

Step 2 Submitting an Application

Click  in the upper left corner, fill in the leave application form and click Submit.

Step 3 Reviewing an Application

Go to My Tasks, and select the application submitted by the employee to review. If you click Submit, the application will be approved by default.
