Configuring Start Node in Standard Finish Workflow

A start node is the starting point of a workflow and no workflow can be created without a start node. No properties need to be set for the start node of a finish workflow. The start node of the standard finish workflow picks up all the incoming activities that are not processed by any other custom inbound workflow. Activities are routed to the finish workflow only after they are processed by the Standard - Start Workflow.

A workflow can have only one start node.

To configure the start node in a standard finish workflow:
  1. From the Partition and Departments dropdown menu, select a department.

  2. From the Navigation menu, browse to Business Rules > Workflow > Inbound.

  3. On the List page, select Finish workflow.

  4. On the Properties page, on the Diagram tab, add the Start node in the Workflow Editor.

  5. In the Add Start Node window you will see a message that the workflow will run only after the start workflow has processed the activity. No additional properties need to be set for this node of the workflow.
