To make any update on a Business Workflow, follow the steps as mentioned below:
- Login to the Asset Track platform with your operator credentials.
After login, Business Workflows is the default page.
- Click on the Edit icon under the Actions column of your desired Workflow.

A new update window appears from the right side of the screen that has three sections such as Workflow Details, Configure Sequence and Workflow Settings.

On the Workflow Details page, most of the fields Name, Asset Category, Description and Asset Profile are non-editable.
Update window
- Update Instance Label Name as required.
Configure Sequence
On Configure Sequence section, enable the Grid using the toggle button from the Workspace Settings.
Change the grid colour and background colour of the grid if needed.
Add only a Group node after your first node i.e., the Start node. Similarly, you can add any node after the last Business Entity.
Configure Sequence section
If required to replace an existing Business Entity to a new business entity at the beginning, you can always draw another flow chart in the same Workflow while updating it.
You can also add other Business Entities/nodes between any 2 existing Business Entities.

Now, under the Basic Information section, select the last node from the Next Node drop-down list.
This adds a new Business Entity to the existing Business Workflow.
If a particular instance is already reached the last Business Entity, you cannot make changes to it.
However, if an instance is somewhere in the Business Workflow and a new Business Entity is added after it, the instance will pass through the newly added Business Entity and you can make changes to the same accordingly.
Under the Settings tab, toggle the Group Status radio button to change what is visible under the timeline.
