Steps

In Ouvvi, Steps are what the Projects will process when they run. Each Step is an individual unit of work with a success or failure outcome. As each step is processed the project will automatically move to the next step.

Internally Ouvvi processes Steps via a Queue in the Ouvvi Database this guarantees that the steps get processed and the process can survive system failures and restarts.

You can find out how to create new steps and how to edit steps please see their respective pages.
