States and Transitions Page

The States/Transitions page lists the states and transitions defined for the workflow or project you are editing.

Note: Decisions are also listed on this page. You can view decision properties, but they should only be modified in SBM Composer.

To view the properties for individual states, decisions, and transitions and override some properties, select an item in the list, and then click Details.

To learn more about the state and transition settings you can modify in projects, refer to Working With States and Transitions in Projects.

To learn more about the transition settings you can modify in workflows, refer to Restricting Transitions.
