Picking up a workflow activity (Classic UI)
You will receive a notification whenever you are assigned with a workflow activity. In addition, you can see all assigned and in-progress activities in the Things to do list. Your assigned activities include workflow activities that are assigned to you specifically and activities assigned to any group of which you are a member.
Procedure
You can pick up a workflow activity assigned to your group in one of the following ways:
- Respond to a notification — When you receive a notification that an activity has been assigned to you or your group, click Show Activity. You can do this immediately when the notification appears or later from the Notifications area. The details of the activity appear.
- Check assigned activities: click the Things to do area at top right part of the screen. In the Things to do dialog that opens, click Assigned to see a list of all activities assigned to you or your group that are not yet picked up. Select an activity to see its details.
You can now click Start Activity to take ownership and start working on the activity.
The activity is added to your Started list, and you see its details screen with a Finish Activity button. No other member of your group can work on this activity.
