Scheduled Task
Description
The scheduledtask part represents a single step/task within a workflow.
Used With: This part is used in the Workflow framework.
Use
The scheduledtask part is a single step/task within a workflow, and the logicnet that contains it represents the workflow itself. When the system executes the workflow, the framework steps through the logicnet of the workflow and executes the scheduled tasks within it.
When the system executes a scheduled task, it presents to the user associated forms for user input or performs specific processing if the task is a system task. Depending on the outcome of the task, the system steps the workflow forward.
