Create tasks in the Task Definitions widget
You can use the Task Definitions widget to create one-off tasks that are performed regularly, and for tasks that start other business processes, or services.
You must have access to a Business Space that contains both a Task Definitions widget and a Task Information widget.
You can start the work or the service by selecting a task definition, and creating a task based on this definition. However, in some situations you might want to select the definition for the new task later.
Procedure
To create a task, perform one of the following actions.
- Select a task definition, and then Create from the Actions list.
- Select Create from the Actions list without selecting a task definition. In the new task that opens in the Task Information widget, select a task definition from the list.
