Task or Event-Based Workflow

CA Identity Manager lets you associate workflow processes with either tasks or events. This means that participants can approve or reject either an entire CA Identity Manager task, or a specific event within a task.

For example, some CA Identity Manager tasks generate several events, and an approver may need to review all events before deciding to approve or reject a request. This is possible under task-level workflow. When a workflow process is associated with a specific event within a task, an approver cannot see the overall task context within which a request is made.
