Applications → Managing States → State Settings → General Tab of the State Property Editor
| Element | Description |
|---|---|
| Type | (Display only) The state type. |
| Name | The name of the state. For clarity, state names should be
unique within a workflow as it appears to a particular role; but your design
could include multiple states with the same name that appear for users in
different roles.
Note: You cannot rename the system states:
[Submit],
[Email],
[Any], and
[Deleted].
|
| Internal name | View or modify the internal name of the state. This field
is read-only if the process app has been published. The default value of this
field is the name of the workflow, a period, and the state name. The internal
name cannot contain spaces or additional periods. The maximum number of
characters is the same as the number for the
Name field.
Note: Internal names are not used for system states
(Any,
Deleted,
Email,
Submit).
Tip: You can copy the internal name and paste it
into a script or a Web service to reference the state.
|
| Status | Select the state status (active or inactive).
Note: This field is not displayed for the "system"
states.
|
| Owner | Select the owner of the state.
Note: This field is not displayed for the system states.
|
| Subtask | Select a binary/trinary field to determine the status of
all subtasks. The value of this field supplies the subtask status ("In
Progress," "Completed," or "Rejected") associated with each state.
Note: This field is not displayed for the system states.
|
| Time capture | (Optional) This option is only visible if the Time Capture is turned on for the workflow. Select to show or hide Time Capture options on the state form. By default, the state inherits the setting applied for states at the workflow level. For more information, see About Time Capture. |
| End-user help text | Click
Edit to open an HTML editor and add
optional comments or notes about the purpose of the state. The text you enter
is displayed to users.
