Standard Flows

Your system includes dozens of standard flows for your use or tailoring. This table identifies some standard flows that you can reference, or copy and modify.

To start execution of a standard flow, a user must hold either the standard privilege AllFlows or a standard privilege named FlowZzzzz, where Zzzzz is the name of the standard flow. Except for the guest access role role, the standard access roles all provide access to the AllFlows privilege.

Use the Records Explorer to see a complete list of the standard and custom flows available to you, based on your RuleSet list and security.

FeedbackDiscussion Completes a request sent by one user for advice or assistance. Part of the standard flow Work-.RequestAssistance, that supports a form of peer-to-peer collaboration.
FinishPolicyOverride Support review of suspended work objects. See Understanding policy overrides and suspended work items.
FixCorrespondence Supports detection and routing of failed correspondence. See Understanding the Pega-ProCom agent.
FixWork Supports resolution of flow errors by an administrator.
FlowProblems Creates an assignment for a designated operator who is to address flow errors. Your flows can start this flow (identifying the assignee as a parameter) if they detect a flow error, a situation suggesting incorrect or incomplete configuration, that requires attention. See flow errors.
NewWork Creates a work item, makes one assignment, and adds a confirmation note attachment.
Notify Allows generation of correspondence; the user can select one correspondence rule from a list. Can be called as a subflow.
RequestAssistance Supports collaboration among application users by allowing them to create a discussion thread, captured as a sequence of note attachments. See collaboration flow.

Add the RequestAssistance flow action to call the RequestAssistance flow (on the same work item). Connect completion of that flow to the original (or another) assignment in the first flow.

SendCorrespondence Sends correspondence that requires verification by a supervisor.
StandardParallelWork Provides an example of Split/Join processing.
VerifySendCorr Sends correspondence that requires verification by a supervisor.
