Field Label Utilization Guideline Name
The Name
field is used to enter the name of the workflow type. Ideally the name of a workflow type consists of a single word, such as “Application” or “Infrastructure”.
Description
The Description
field is used to enter a very short description of the workflow type, for example “Must Adhere to Application Change Management Policy”.
Disabled
The Disabled
box is checked when the workflow type may not be related to any more workflow templates or workflows.
Reference

field is automatically set to the Name
field value, written in lower case characters and with all spaces replaced by the underscore character. This reference can be used to link the workflow type to a workflow template or workflow using the Xurrent REST API or the Xurrent Import functionality.
The reference no longer gets updated if the workflow type is linked to one or more workflows.
Information

This field allows basic text formatting .
Workflows
The Workflows
table field lists all the workflows to which the workflow type is linked.
