Introduction

Tikipro, has inherited a Workflow Engine from TikiWiki called Galaxia. This engine is quite powerful and easy to use once the basic concepts have been mastered. Rather than give you all the concepts now, I will introduce them throughout the tutorial to help understand their use and context in the scheme of workflow generation.
Ensure Workflow is enabled on your website. If you have the permissions, you can visit Administration / Administer Packages / Features and check the Workflow feature. Click Change Preferences to save your change.

Processes

The first part of creating a workflow is to create a Process. A process is usually the objective of the workflow. Be careful not to confuse a specific Activity with the Process. Some example Processes are;
  • Tracking Employee Holidays
  • Approval for department budget requests
