Fig. 1: Summary workflow module at the end of a workflow with data submission.

This document describes the functionality of the 'summary' workflow module and how to properly configure if for a workflow.

Required permissions:

Functionality

A summary workflow step is automatically added at the end of any workflow that includes a step that submits observations to the InfoEx server (Observations module, Snowpack module, Hazard assessment module or Hazard comment module). This allows users to review all of their observations and assessments in one location prior to submitting them to the InfoEx.

The summary workflow step is the only step in a workflow where the Submit is enabled.

Layout

The data of each data submitting workflow step is presented in the order of the steps in the workflow.

The observation tables from the Observations module only contain the data fields where information has been entered.

Settings

The summary workflow module does not have any settings.
