The SAS Model Manager
Workflow Console is an interface to SAS Workflow that you can use
to track the progress of models at the version level of a project.
A SAS Model Manager administrator or a SAS administrator uses SAS
Workflow Studio to define workflow definitions and to make them available
to SAS Model Manager for use. Workflow definitions contain the set
of activities (or tasks), participants, policies, statuses, and data
objects that comprise a business task. After the workflow definitions
are made available, the SAS Model Manager administrator uses the Workflow
Console to create workflows to be used with SAS Model Manager. A
workflow is
a copy of a workflow 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.
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.
