Categories

Categories allow you to organize the resources associated with your workflows.

Note: You assign categories directly from within a workflow. If a category has not already been created, you can also create it within the workflow you want to use it in. When you create a category from within a workflow, it is also added to the Categories folders list.

Resources that can be associated with workflows include:

  • workflow
  • schedules
  • subprocesses
  • user activities
  • faults
  • completion codes
  • filters

When you assign categories to these resources, you can filter and search your project elements more effectively without having to browse for them. When you modify the name of a category resource, it is reflected in all associated resources.
