You need to go through these steps to create a workflow:

1. Name * - Enter a name for the workflow. This field is necessary for the workflow name to be shown in the Workflow list and can be easily found using the search box.

2. Type * - You must select a type for the workflow, and once this workflow is created, its type cannot be altered. This field offers 3 options for the workflow type:

• Case management - The workflow with this type can be used when attached to a specific case.

  • To apply a workflow for a case, you need to use these workflows with this type when you create a Case type. You can see more an example of a workflow applied in the claim case here: Claim Workflow

  • This type allows you to manually define a workflow according to case by case.

  • You can create a workflow with steps and include forms that you created.

• Automatic - An automated workflow enables the system to execute certain tasks automatically in response to an event trigger.

  • A workflow in automatic type will automatically triggered by an event in the system.

• FNOL - FNOL, or First Notice of Loss, is a specialized case type in insurance designed for the initial reporting of a loss. This type is specific for claims management, ensuring that you can take some prompt action or notification when a loss occurs. Therefore, the system provides a separate type so that you can create a suitable workflow for initial processing.

  • This type defines the workflow that can attach to an FNOL ( First notice of loss).

  • You can use these workflows with this type when you create an FNOL case. See more: https://contemi.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SHC/pages/1761935477/Manage+FNOL+case+Create+Edit+Delete+Reassign#Create-FNOL-case and Configure FNOL Workflow
