Summary
In this chapter, we provided a detailed walkthrough on building workflow automation with the Workflow designer using the BPMN notations. We also explained how automation developers can customize the task UI, and add integrations with external services or RPA bots.
We also provided a brief introduction on how to manage the process life cycle, how to handle exceptions and escalation with error and timer events respectively, and how to troubleshoot and manage the process instances with the runtime process inspector. While we only showed a simple Request and Approval process pattern, the same technique can be applied to implement more complicated workflow patterns.
In the next chapter, we will describe how to create reusable business logic with decision services.
