Actions

Actions is an optional tab allowing for complex workflow building. It enables a workflow to have a jump. A specific document can jump to a certain stage. For example, a Form FDA 1572 after QC1 review, can jump to a stage 3 review, where Regulatory Affairs performs a 2nd review on the document. While efficient for complex workflows, it is not required for regular workflow creation.
