There are a few things to keep in mind when dropping tasks:
l You can insert input tasks anywhere in the process except in output task locations.
l When you add an output task, a new branch leading to that new task is added above the selected task
or branch, except when replacing an existing output task.
l Dropping a task on top of another one replaces it.
l Dropping a task between two tasks will insert it at that location.
l You cannot add a task above the initial input task of a process, since new tasks are always added
above a selected task or branch.
Adding Branches
The PlanetPress Workflow Configuration program offers two different commands when it comes to adding
new branches to a process:
You can add a new branch, by dragging and dropping a branch, from the Process Logic category of the
Plug-in Bar, into your process. Branches can be added using the Adding Tasks method.
You can add a new branch that contains all of the tasks below the point where you insert the branch. To do
this, right-click on the first task that you want to include in the branch, and select Branch From Here.... An
unknown task will be created as an output below the branch.
Edit a Task
To edit a task, you simply need to access and change its properties. You may even do it while your process
is in Debug mode (See About the Debug Mode).
To edit a task:
1.
In the PlanetPress Workflow Process area, double-click the Task icon. A dialog box containing the
available task properties is displayed.
2. Edit the task properties as required. Click specific tabs to see all the properties associated with the
task.
3.
Click OK to close the dialog box and save the new properties.
