•Start

•Complete

Some transitions apply to more than one state. This is indicated by an arrow that begins in a super-state. For example, terminate transitions from any open state to the terminated state. An additional transition, reset, is not shown in the diagram. The reset transition brings any object back to the not started state.

Both Open.NotRunning.Suspended.Disabled and Open.NotRunning.Suspended. Intermited are labeled suspended; however, the Open.NotRunning.Suspended. Disabled state is currently not used, so there is no chance of confusion.

The following is the model for connectors:

•Enabled

•Disabled

Out-of-the-Box Workflow Templates

This section provides information about the out-of-the-box workflow templates and process images that can be associated with them.

The out-of-the-box workflow templates in Windchill allow you to automate procedures in which tasks and documents are passed among participants.

PTC Global Services consultants can help you determine how the out-of-the-box workflows correspond to your business processes. Although you can modify workflows if necessary, you will get better results if you map the existing workflows to your processes, rather than create new workflows based on your processes.

Caution

Changes you make to workflows may not be compatible with future Windchill release and service packs, and may require additional support from PTC Global Services consultants.

The following list provides all out-of-the-box workflow templates by solution that are loaded into the site context during installation:
