Defining queues

Queues hold work items that are waiting to be processed. You can manage user queues and create work queues and component queues.

Workflow queues hold work items that are waiting to be processed.
Creating work queues
Work queues hold work items that can be completed by more than one user or can be completed by an automated process.
Component queues
Component queues make it possible to process a workflow step by using an external entity, such as a Java™ object or Java Message Service (JMS).
Creating workflow rosters
A workflow roster is a database structure that stores information about all workflows in an isolated region. Workflow rosters provide the workflow system and workflow administrators with an efficient way to locate specific active workflows.
