Defining a workflow process and map vs process plan
Hi If my understanding is correct. a lifecycle is the states an item (be it a part, equipment or document) goes through. The manufacturing process plan is the plan (list of operations and steps) required to realize a part or product. Then what is the workflow map, process, activity, assignment and task? And can a workflow process not be the same as a manufacturing process plan? Is there possibly a document that clearly defines these, their relation to one another and to which items they relate to (part, product, document etc.) Thanks
ECO Closed, But Workflow is in Start
Good day all. I am new to ARAS and have been going through how our system is set up. There is a lot of customization done to the database by the previous contractor. Currently I have ECOs that have been marked as Completed, Canceled, Released, etc., but the Workflow is still in the Start status. When I try to step through the Workflow I am given a message stating the ECO is not in the correct state. How do I fix this problem? Thank you for your help.

onBeforeUpdate Event method called twice, why?
I have a method from where I started workflow for document and I attach that method to Server Event of Document Itemtype, and called this method on "onAfterAdd" event, which works fine. Now, My requirement is when I revised the Document, again I want to start a workflow for revision B, for that, I used same method called "start_workflow_afterRev" which is used earlier but with some conditions, like document classification and state of the document from lifecycle, if both conditions matches then I want to start a workflow. and I attached "start_workflow_afterRev" this method to Document ItemType on "onBeforeUpdate" event, workflow get started, but this method called twice and because of this two task get created in My InBasket. why method runs twice on "onBeforeUpdate" event? or is there any solution to start workflow for new revision?

Creating a New Workflow including Item Type
Hi all, im looking to create a custom workflow for an RFQ Process. While I am able to map a workflow, I am not sure how to do the following: I would like the RFQ process to show up as a subsection in the portfolio, not sure how to do that. Once the RFQ workflow is complete, I would like it to automatically trigger a project. I would like the template selection to be based on the final voting given in the workflow (in the last activity, the user will select the required template based on the development characteristics identified) I would like to be able to link the workflow activity with the project activity. Any help/ relevant tutorials or community projects for the same would be extremely helpful! Im sorry if my questions are vague, I am very new to this so i may not be using the correct lingo. Looking forward to learning from you all. Thanks!Workflow Activity not get created when new revision is created
Hi, I have part lifecycle, in which I have 3 states Preliminary, Review and Released, On Released state I give permission to update, so it will create a new revision of , this all works fine, State of the part also get change from Released to Preliminary, but workflow task will not get create for B revision. Thanks.
