- In the new Workflow Editor, you can configure a step by selecting it, and then specifying the appropriate information in the properties pane.
- In the old Workflow Editor, you can configure a step by double-clicking it, and then specifying the appropriate information in the properties dialog box.
Note: Assign human steps and the Auto Error step to the appropriate users or workflow roles. In the new Workflow Editor, you can assign a step to a maximum of 240 individual users. If you need to assign it to more than 240 users, include the users in a workflow role and assign the step to that workflow role.
Also, the name that you enter when configuring the Start step will be the name of your workflow.
