Workflow Foundations
This section provides you with general information about workflows, from information you need to develop them to running them.
Process Execution Model Overview
The process execution model defines the structure of a workflow, and has several process steps that can be programmed and triggered during a workflow instance.
Workflow Process Steps
Process steps are part of every process-oriented workflow.
Postsubprocess
The postsubprocess step starts after the subprocess, and at the end of every subprocess listed.

    This section provides you with general information about workflows, from information you need to develop them to running them.
    - Tasks
      Workflow tasks are accessible when a workflow has been put into a run time state. When a workflow is running, the task information is available to the computers and operators assigned to that task or task step, as well as to administrators.
    - Workflow Execution Engine Overview
      This application consists of a workflow execution engine, which is the core component of the process management system. The engine is responsible for interpreting workflows, controlling multiple workflow instances, and sequencing subprocesses and activities.
    - Persistence in Workflows
    - Building and Configuring Workflows
      Workflows consist of programs that can carry out complex activities, respond to events and data changes, and write values back out to the data models or through external connectors.
    - Process Execution Model Overview
      The process execution model defines the structure of a workflow, and has several process steps that can be programmed and triggered during a workflow instance.
      - Workflow Process Steps
        Process steps are part of every process-oriented workflow.
        Load
        The load step is the first step in a workflow cycle. It is used to perform a one-time only setup for the workflow instance.
        Preprocess
        The preprocess step starts after the load step ends. This step performs any initialization work required for the process.
        Presubprocess
        This step performs any initialization work required for the subprocess.
        Task Step (Subprocess) Configuration
        A subprocess is part of a user-defined process in a workflow.
        Postsubprocess
        The postsubprocess step starts after the subprocess, and at the end of every subprocess listed.
        Postprocess
        The postprocess step completes a workflow before the unload step starts.
        Unload
        The unload step is the last step in a workflow cycle.

Postsubprocess

The postsubprocess step starts after the subprocess, and at the end of every subprocess listed.

This step performs any uninitialization and recording work required for the subprocess. It allows a variety of input and output scenarios to be completed after each subprocess ends. At the end of this step, tracking data for the subprocess is recorded, including the completion code and any tracked subprocess variables.

Properties

The following table describes the available options.

Property	Read	Write	Description
CurrentSubprocess	N/A	N/A	Read Only Collection of all of the subprocesses contained in the workflow. This property allows you to access the properties of any subprocess contained in the workflow using the workflow variable viewer.
