Operations and Execution

Generally, specific functions will be available in the isolation list and to the Isolation Points in the list, depending on the current status of the workflow.

Therefore, when the status of the isolation list changes, the available functions will change.

Note: Due to dynamic configuration, there are many possibilities for custom configuration of the list functionality. The functionality of your isolation list will be configured to your business needs.
