It’s always worth thinking about how you initially set up a system before using it, adding data, and later realizing that the initial work needs to be redone due to customizations. When setting up Helix ALM workflows, it is even more important to carefully plan the initial setup.
The workflow works like a state event machine, consisting of states and transitions (events), with these components linked to concrete data in the underlying database. As soon as data has been added to the database, the ability to change the workflow is severely limited, as existing states can no longer be removed, while improvements such as adding additional states and transitions are still possible.
We support you in setting up workflows and show you workarounds to ensure flexibility and scope for further changes.
