Workflow in the other apps

A VNCworkflow request is often about something — a document, a task, a channel topic. Instead of switching to VNCworkflow and re-typing it, you Start workflow from where the item lives, and the request is linked back to it.

App Where What it becomes
VNCfiles A file → Start workflow (below the preview) A request linked to that file.
VNCtask+ A task’s Workflow chip (on its row) A request linked to that task.
VNCchannels+ A topic → Start workflow in the header (Actions) A request linked to that topic.

Each opens the same create wizard — type, text & attachments, station route, summary — so the approval rules are the same wherever you start.

The source item then carries a Workflow chip showing the request’s Kennung and current state (submitted, forwarded, approved, rejected, commented). Select it to open the request in VNCworkflow.

If a request is already running for the item, you are asked “A workflow is already running for this topic/file/task (…). Open it instead?” — select Open rather than starting a second one.

Whatever the starting point, the request lives in VNCworkflow: the stations, the decisions, the history and the Audit trail PDF are all there. The other apps only hold the link and the status chip.
