About Tasks
A task is a plugin or a block that is used to build PReS Workflow processes. Tasks can do
multiple things depending on the type of task and where they are placed. You can add as many
tasks as you like to your processes and order them in any way you can.
There are different types of tasks:
l Input Task:Will either capture data from a specific location, or wait for input from a
service or other computer to start processing.
l Action Task:Will manipulate the data in any number of ways. An action task is any task
that is not an input or output task or a branch or condition.
l Output Task:Will output data to a specific location or send to a different service or
computer.
