It can be accessed as an option from the

...

List dropdown menu.

...

The Document Management dashboard lists all the space and global scoped workflows that are added to the space by space admins to use in

...

space mode.

Spaces must be set in Comala Document Management global configuration to allow workflows to be added. Global default for an instance a space admin can add and apply Comala Document Management workflows to ANY space. for content in the space.

Space Mode

If space mode is enabled, to add a space workflow to content requires the space admin to add or create at least one workflow and enable the workflow in the space workflows Document Management Dashboard.

...

One or more workflows can be added to the dashboard. These space workflows can be

  • a global scope workflow that cannot be edited by the space admin in the space

  • a space scope workflow that can be edited by the space admin in the space

Workflows added to the space document dashboard are listed in the following hierarchy

  • by scope

  • for each scope, alphabetically by name

If a global scope workflow is added to the space it is automatically enabled

  • the global scope workflow will be applied to all space content unless it includes a content label filter or content type filter

iI a space scope workflow is added to the space and enabled will be applied to all space content unless

  • a global scope workflow has been added

  • unless the space scope workflow includes a content label filter or content type filter

Tip

If you need to use multiple workflows in a space, each applied to different content, then all the active workflows must have a content label filter.

An active workflow without a content label filter will be applied in preference to any other active workflow of the same scope even if these other workflows include a content label filter.

When there are multiple active space workflows in a space, after workflow scope (global or space scope) and content label filter, the priority of application to the content in the space is determined by the order each workflow is listed in the dashboard, with the highest listed workflow being applied (subject to workflow scope and any content label filters). As these are listed alphabetically by workflow name for each scope of workflow, the only way to change this order is by management of the workflow name in the space.
