Workflows and tasks

Workflows are made up by a set of tasks that can be assigned to users. For example a task to translate a set of new products, or add a selling description of a product.

A typical scenario is that a new set of products have been set up in Litium either manually or by automatically via an integration. Your task is to enrich the products with market and sales information, for example a translate name to English, and add a description for each product.

To do this you can use tasks to keep track of the products that need completed information. 

A workflow contain tasks. A task contains the products that needs enriching. A task can be assigned to Persons or Groups of Persons.
