Overview: Making Changes to Procedure Steps and Substeps
Updated 6 days ago

A Procedure's Steps are its individual work instructions. Each time the Procedure is assigned, every Step becomes a Task in the Assignment, which its Assignee completes. Steps can be nested up to four levels deep, so related Steps group under a broader one, and TaskTrain numbers them automatically (1, 1.1, 1.1.1, …).

What a Step holds

Select a Step to see it in the detail pane:

  • Info: its Default Assignee and whether it requires approval, its Entry Criteria, its Materials & Tools, and its Exit Criteria.
  • Guide: its detailed instructions and its Resources, which every Task made from it shows.
  • Actions: deleting the Step.
  • Fields: the values its Task takes in and produces.
  • Activity: the history of changes to the Step.
