About case activities

Maintain best practices and update dynamically

Case activities can help you maintain best practices for handling ad-hoc tasks and tasks based on legal requirements.

With case activities you can map the possible events in a workflow and associate each event with a rule that calls for a certain action. You can also continue to update your case activities to reflect changes in work routines. In this way you preserve knowledge about work processes and you ensure that new best practices are implemented immediately in the handling of daily tasks and work routines.

Rule-based activities

With case activities you can create workflows based on activities that are connected by a set of rules. The rules define the relationship between the activities. For example, the rules can ensure that activities in a workflow are completed in a specific sequence or that specific activities exclude other activities.

The case activity graph

Case activities are modeled in a case activity graph and once the graph is deployed, the case activities can be executed in WorkZone Client.

In the following illustration, you see a case activity graph with tasks, roles, and connections. The roles MPA and GST specify which employees are to execute the tasks, and the connections define the rules of the flow.

- Condition: Indicates that a second activity can only be executed if the previous activity has been addressed.

- Exclude: Excludes other activities upon execution
