Enable Next Task

The Enable Next Task action allows you to control the enabled/disabled state and visibility of one or more workflow task buttons in a process form. This is typically triggered by workflow events, such as completing a step, validation, or user actions, to guide users through the process flow.

Properties and Explanation

These are previous task buttons: Indicates whether the selected tasks are previous (already completed) tasks. This can be used for custom logic or display purposes.

Task Names: Specifies the names of the task buttons to be affected. You can select one or more tasks using their names (Element IDs) from a multi-select list. The action will match the first line of the button's caption (up to 20 characters) to the provided names.

Enable: If checked, the selected task buttons will be enabled (clickable). If unchecked, the buttons will be disabled (not clickable).

Hide Task: If checked, the selected task buttons will be hidden from the user interface. If unchecked, the buttons will be visible.

  • You can use this action to dynamically enable, disable, show, or hide workflow steps based on business logic or user input.

  • The action updates the state of the task buttons immediately, reflecting the new settings for the specified tasks.
