Manual Inputs
The Inputs section displays information that requires operator interaction for a task step, such as a manual start or a form submission.If a task is preconfigured to wait for an operator to start it, you must manually start a task step to progress the workflow.
If configured, you can view completed or acquired task forms. When a completed task step is selected, the last submitted form for that task step is shown. If an acquired task step is selected, the currently executing form is shown.
| Input | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Manual Start | Preconfigured | Requires operator interaction. The Start button advances the workflow. |
| Form input | User-defined; Preconfigured | Requires operator interaction. Complete the form and submit it to advance the workflow. If applicable, cancel the form to advance the workflow; however, the Cancel button is available only if the user has permission to do so. You can also use the Status Message to get more information about your form. Tip: In the Mobile-sized Task List, you can use the arrow next to the Form button to display a selection of all available forms, both running and completed, and then select a form from the list. When there are no more task steps to perform, you will be notified and the Start Task button becomes available. |
| E-signature | User-defined; Preconfigured | Requires operator interaction. A form may need to be signed electronically before it is submitted. Sign the form and submit it to advance the workflow. Note: This feature is not available on the Mobile-sized Task List. You will receive an error message and the form will not load if you try to open a form that requires an e-signature. |
