Manual Application Task: Application processes

A manual task interrupts an application process until manual intervention is done. A task-interrupted process remains suspended until the targeted user or users respond. Typically, manual tasks are removed after the process is tested or automated.

Note: You can use manual tasks steps in application, component, and generic processes. However, this step configuration window applies only to application processes.

Similar to approvals, triggered tasks alert targeted users. Alerts are associated with environment- or application-defined user roles. Affected users can respond (approve) by using the Work Items pane (see Work items). Unlike approvals, manual tasks can be incorporated within an application process.

For information on using manual tasks in application processes, see Creating manual application tasks.
