What is the lifecycle of an electronic resource?
Can you just tell me when to turn?!
CORAL Workflows
In 500 ft turn left, … Keep right … Process the order now… Don’t forget to sign the license… Time to activate the resource… Arriving at destination…
A series of emails and task queues which remind people to do their part
How does it work?
Create your workflow rules…
How this plays out for staff…
Users check their queue for new tasks…
Will be in someone’s queue, until all steps are complete.
