(Example) Mark an Activity as Complete in Manage Center

This example shows how to mark an activity as complete in Manage Center.

Background and Setup

Prerequisites

Good to Know

  • As a best practice, if you mark an activity as complete, it is recommended to search by process instance name so that you do not mark an activity as complete from the wrong process instance.

    To search by process instance name, you can retrieve it from Work Center. For more information, refer to:

    In this example, the process instance name is Sales Invoice-2023-07-28T09:53:30:732.

  • The Sales Invoice app creates an invoice for products sold by an organization. This app provides a form to enter information for the invoice. The invoice request is then routed for escalating approvals from the finance manager.

    For the use case in this example, after the form submits, the invoice request is routed for approval from the finance manager. If the finance manager is away, a user with the necessary access rights marks the Finance Manager Approval activity as complete to move the process forward.
