You can create expressions or bind properties for many of these properties, depending on your workflow requirements.

  3. In the Displays panel, click Workflow Management > Workflow Editor.
  4. Click the Workflow Editor tab.
  5. Insert an activity:
    • At the workflow level:
      • From the Standard Activities panel, click and drag the activity you want to insert to a drop point.
        Note: Activities can exist only between the presubprocess and postsubprocess.
    • At the subprocess level:
      • Double-click the local subprocess you want to add the activity to.
      • From the Standard Activities panel, click and drag the activity you want to insert to a drop point.
