The SAS Model Manager
Workflow Console is an interface to SAS Workflow that you can use
to track the progress of models in a project’s version. A SAS
Model Manager administrator or a SAS administrator uses SAS Workflow
Studio to define process definitions and to make them available to
SAS Model Manager for use. Process definitions contain the set of
activities, participants, policies, statuses, and data objects that
comprise a business task. After the workflow process definitions are
made available, the SAS Model Manager administrator uses Workflow
Console to create workflows to be used with SAS Model Manager. A
workflow is
a copy of a workflow process definition. Each workflow consists of
activities. Activities can contain properties and comments so that
you can share information with other users, or make notes. The status
that you select when completing an activity determines the next activity
in the workflow process.
From the SAS Model Manager
client application, you can launch the Workflow Console to create
a new workflow or view the workflow for a version, manage all workflows,
and view your workflow inbox to work with activities. The option that
is selected and the user permissions determine the category views
and content that are displayed when Workflow Console is launched.
SAS Model Manager administrators can view the Workflow Definitions,
Workflows, and Activities category views. Other SAS Model Manager
users can view only the Activities category view. For more information
about user permissions,
see Configuring Users, Groups, and Roles in SAS Model Manager: Administrator's Guide.
