About states and transitions

AVEVA™ Production Management supplies a default record state workflow. In most cases, this is sufficient and you are not required to alter the supplied record states and the standard workflow.
For each record state, the possible transitions appear beneath the record state. It is not possible for any state to transition to the Error state, so the Error state does not appear as a valid transition.
When you add a new custom record state, each available transition appears beneath the new custom state and the new custom state appears as a valid transition beneath existing states.
Example of workflows
This diagram illustrates the standard Recipe workflow that is supplied with AVEVA™ Production Management out-of-the-box.

This diagram shows a possible new Recipe workflow scenario with custom states introduced to the workflow.
