Using the Where-Am-I? display |
Click the Where-am-I? icon ( or ) or button () on a user form or worklist display to view, in a separate window, the diagram of the current flow, with a larger arrow marking the current assignment.
This display shows the stack of one or more incomplete flow executions in progress that lead to a specific assignment or other incomplete shape in the flow. It does not show the entire work item history, which may involve other flow executions now completed. The appearance of the flow reflects the most recent editing mode — Visio or Process Modeler. Subprocesses may be a combination of Visio and Process Modeler flows.
Only users who hold the Work-.Perform privilege can display and interact with the diagram.
If your application is localized, the labels on this display are localized.
This window has three panels:
The top panel presents flows in the current flow stack. The flow stack is the current list of flows in process for a current shape. It does not include completed flow executions, or other executions operating on this work item in parallel to the current execution.
The flow at the top left was started first, and in most cases is the flow that created the work item. Each flow is the parent of the next subprocess presented. The right-most flow name is the subprocess that contains an incomplete assignment.
Click a flow name to select it and view details in the left and right panels. The selected flow name displays in Bold text.
In Process Modeler flows, the beside the flow name replaces the Open Flow button seen in the left panel for Visio flows. The is visible only when the Where-Am-I? display is opened from the Designer Studio and when the user has permission to edit the flow.
The left panel contains an image of the diagram for the flow selected.
A golden arrow () identifies the current shape, typically an assignment. The checkmark identifies shapes that correspond to completed tasks.
In Process Modeler flows, a vector-based image allows you to pan, zoom, and navigate the flow using the minimap. Right-click and double-click functions, however, are not available in WhereAmI.
The right panel displays selected items from the history of the work item, for the flow that is selected (displays in Bold text) in the top panel.
For assignment shapes, the display includes:
For other shapes, the contents of the right panel depend on history options in the flow.
