Definition

Workflow process control function.

Use

The following control commands are available:

  • Cancel work item

    This function is only supported if the step is located in a fork.

    At runtime, the workflow system changes the status of another work item of the same workflow to "logically deleted". This completes this other work item and defined subsequent steps are not executed.

    The work item is identified by its node number and must be located in another branch of the same fork.

  • Set work item to obsolete

    At runtime, the workflow system completes another work item of the same workflow with the exception "processing obsolete". The other work item must support this exception.

    The work item is identified by its node number.

    This function is only supported in the following cases:

    • The work item refers to a step in the same fork
    • The work item refers to the step whose deadline has been missed and in whose subsequent modeling the process control step is located
  • Terminate workflow

    At runtime, the workflow system terminates the current workflow. If the workflow is part of a superordinate workflow as a subworkflow, the system continues the superordinate workflow.

  • Cancel workflow

    At runtime, the workflow system changes the status of the current workflow to logically deleted. If the workflow is part of a superordinate workflow as a subworkflow, the system does not continue the superordinate workflow.
