Understanding task flows
Task flows are a variation of Business Process Flows or, as we simply say, task flows are an alternative approach for using business processes on a mobile device. Task Flow has similarities with Business Process Flow, but its features are very different from Business Process Flow. For example, task flows can be executed on different user devices at the same time on the same record. Task Flow also makes data transparent on mobile devices.
There are different features available for use in Task Flow:
- Task Flows are at a user level, meaning each process becomes unique to a user
- Task Flows can be used by different users on the same record, who may get a different result to those users
- Task Flows have editable control from multiple entities
- In Task Flows, conditional branching is more flexible
