Chapter 8. Work Management 153 Figure 8- 11 Example of a work type to start process flow control when work order status is in progress 8.2.2 Flow control Flow control enables a task sequence to be executed automatically. Task flow sequences are used to indicate the steps necessary to complete a work order following a structured plan. The Predecessors field, located in each task, is used to define the task predecessors that enable tasks to start in a planned sequence. This field determines all predecessor tasks that have to end their flow before starting the flow of the next tasks. A task flow control is controlled by the Under Flow Control check box, which enables the task to change its status considering the sequence defined. This check box is located in the work order level and in the tasks level. The option for flow control has to be enabled in the work order level to allow activation in the tasks level. After it is enabled in the work order level, all of the tasks enable theirs Note: A process flow, whose definition is set by work types, is used by work orders to automatically start a flow control.
