Process Details Page Overview (since release 7.0)

Introduction

The Processes tab (1) allows the user to create and manage Processes. To view the details of an existing Process, click the Process Name (2).

The Process Details header displays the following information:

Additionally, the buttons in the header allow the user to perform the following actions:

  • Open the Process Diagram in the Process Designer (4)
  • Open the Gantt chart for the current process (5) in template mode
  • Start (6) a new instance of the current process (for processes configured for manual initiation only)
  • Edit the Process (7, see notes below)
  • Delete the Process (8)
  • Clone the Process (9)

For processes that are not yet activated, the "Activate" button will be displayed instead of "Start Process."

Work-Relay Processes - Google Chrome

Both "Activate" and "Edit" buttons will work with Primary version of the process.

To edit other versions open them in the Wizard or Builder.

To activate other version click "Save and activate" button when editing it in the wizard, or activate it in the Process Builder.

The "Edit" button (7) has different abilities depending on the version of Work-Relay installed in your Salesforce org.

Prior to version 8, clicking this button will allow the user to edit the Process Name and define the Process Manager.

From version 8 this button provides the following functionality, depending upon the conditions specified:

  • If the Process has not been edited in the Process Designer, or changes were minor and are compatible with the Process Wizard, the Process will be opened in the Process Wizard and may be edited.
  • If the process has been edited in the Process Designer and changes are incompatible with the Process Wizard, only the Process Name and Manager will be available to edit.

The Process Details screen contains several subtabs:

Totals (Process Statistics)

The Totals subtab displays a number of charts that allow the user to visualize process execution statistics. The data displayed in the charts is defined by modifying the options at the top of the page:

  • Metrics for Process Version (10) - The Version of the open Process record.
  • Period (11) - The date range for the data that should be reflected in the charts. Process Instances started within the selected range will be included.
  • Display Sub-Process Steps (12) - An option to include or exclude statistics for sub-processes included in the selected Process record. (Only applicable for a Process that contain sub-processes.)

Similar to the native Salesforce dashboard feature, the following actions are available, in order to display the most up-to-date information in the charts:

  • Recalculate Totals (13) - Triggers a full refresh of statistical data. All underlying Flow Step Statistics will be deleted and recalculated anew. This action should not need to be performed very often. When clicked, the user must confirm their desire to recalculate. The most recent calculation date will be displayed next to this button.
  • Refresh (14) - Gathers all Flow Step Statistics pertinent to the Process, adds them to the current statistical data, and refreshes the charts with the updated dataset. This action is similar to refreshing a native Salesforce Dashboard.

The following charts are available:

  • Process Instance States - Displays all Process Instances started within the selected period, grouped by their current state.
  • Active Steps by Risk of Being Late - Displays all active steps for Process Instances in progress, grouped by their risk of being late.
  • Assignee Task Load - Displays the number of steps assigned to each Assignee, within the specified period, grouped by status (Active, Completed, Late).
  • Process Step Metrics - Displays the total occurrences of each metric for every step of the process, within the specified period.
  • Step Completion Metrics - Displays the steps completed across all process instances within the selected period, grouped by On Time/Late.

Clicking on a Step Name in the Process Step Metrics chart displays more granular data related to the Step.

For additional details, please review the dedicated Process Step Metrics article.

Process Statistics tab is also available as a Lightning Component that can be incorporated into Lightning pages and visible for all users. See this related article to learn more.

  • Version Name (35)
  • Version precedence (36)

  • Last Modified Date (39)

The following actions may be performed on a Version record:

  • Clone (41) - Creates a non-primary, inactive copy of the selected Process Version.
  • Start a new Process Instance (42) of the selected version.

The following actions may only be performed on non-primary Version records:

  • Make Primary (44) - Removes the Is Primary designation from the current primary Version record and sets the selected Version record as primary (i.e., this Version will be used when a new Process Instance is started).
  • Delete (45) - Fully deletes the selected Version record.

Note: Deleting the process version also deletes all Process Instances started on it. This action should be performed with extreme care.

Audit Trail

From version 8.2 onward, changes made to a Process Version are stored in the Audit Trail. For additional details, please review the dedicated Audit Trail article.

The Notes and Attachments subtab allows the user to add and manage notes and file attachments related to current process. This table will display:

  • Type (55) of record - Note or Attachment
  • Title (56) of the record - Clicking the link will display a popup containing additional details about the record.
  • Last Modified Date & Time (57)
