About Workflow 7.0

Symantec Workflow 7.0 provides the Workflow 7.0 capability of advanced logic

and workflow to Symantec Management Console and the Symantec solutions.

For more information on Workflow 7.0, see the Workflow 7.0 User's Guide.

See “Where to get more information about Symantec Workflow 7.0”on page 12.

Workflow 7.0 is not a single piece of software. It has five main pieces—Workflow

Solution, Workflow Designer, Workflow Server, client tools, and Process Manager.

The following table describes each piece:

Chapter

Table 1-1 Pieces of Workflow 7.0

DescriptionSoftware piece

Workflow Solution is the piece of Workflow 7.0 that is

installed as an integrated solution on the Symantec

Management Platform and is accessible through the

Symantec Management Console. It facilitates licensing and

reports with the platform. It also integrates Workflow

Designer and Workflow Server with Symantec Management

Platform. This integration lets Workflow interact with other

solutions, such as creating tasks that other solutions can

use. The solution piece also lets you distribute components

through the Symantec Management Console.

Workflow Solution

Workflow Designer is the tool used to design processes. It

contains components that you can arrange into processes

and then publish to a Workflow Server. It should be installed

on computers other than the Symantec Management

Platform host. Installation of Workflow Designer is not

required. Workflow Designer is dependent on Workflow

Server to be able to publish workflows.

For more information about Workflow Designer, see the

Workflow 7.0 User's Guide.

Workflow Designer

Workflow Server runs and manages published workflow

projects. It should be installed on any computer to which

you want to publish: a designated server or your local

computer. It is installed automatically when you install

Workflow 7.0. Typically, you should designate a server as

the production Workflow server and install Workflow Server

on that server so there is a central location for all

production-ready workflows.

For more information, see the Workflow Solution User's

Guide.

Workflow Server

Process Manager is a Web portal used to manage published

processes that include human interaction. It should be

installed on a central Process Manager server. Installation

of Process Manager is not required. For a development and

testing environment, install Process Manager on a design

computer. For a production environment, install it on a

central server.

For more information, see the Workflow 7.0 User's Guide.
