Workflows can be designed based on logic in each stage. For example, the data captured from an instrument shall pass through the following stages in a workflow:
| Workflow Stage | Role Mapped | Workflow Status |
|---|---|---|
| Assign | Analyst | Reviewed |
| Analyze | Data Analyst | Analysis Completed |
| Verify | QC | Verified |
| Approve | QC | Verified |
Each stage in the workflow is mapped to a role. Once the data pass through a stage, the status of the data/file is changed to the next status. The data/file should pass through all the stages in the workflow to successfully complete the job.
