# Workflow Mapping

Production Workflow allows the order to be tracked through the different stages of the production process.

To start new workflow, use CTRL + Left Click anywhere in the workflow map section.

{% hint style="info" %}
Notice: Workflow steps can be rearranged by holding Left Click and dragging the icons.
{% endhint %}

To create next step, select current step (name of selected step will be highlighted by **bold** text) and use Right Click. System will create new step and a transition link automatically.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
Notice: Currently selected steps or transitions are reflected on the right side of the workflow details page.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Notice: Steps and Transition Links can be added and deleted separately.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

Transitions between steps does not have to be unidirectional. In case of a quality assurance (QA) step, system allows to revert the flow of the process back to previous (or alternative) step in order to fix the issue.

{% hint style="info" %}
Notice: Make sure to provide proper Names and Description for each step to make a workflow more comprehensible for the end user.
{% endhint %}

Additionally, link between two process there can be data captured. For example, when a product fails inspection and is moved to the disposal area, a reason for the failure can be captured. This will help to determine the cause of failure and can help to increase productivity going forward.&#x20;
