SAP BPC - Business Process Flows
Business Process Flows are used to guide users with predefined set of application tasks. These steps should be performed in a series and can have sub steps too.
Sub steps in process flow shouldn’t be executed in a sequence and may not be required at each iteration. Also note that Business Process Flows can only be defined for end user tasks and not for administrative tasks.
Following Business Process Flow features can be used −
