Workflow Integration

Created on 9 June 2025, about 1 month ago

Problem/Motivation

We want workflows for entities, but the Content Moderation module does not meet our needs.

Contacts and Relationships do not have a concept of publish so it makes little sense to have a default version and a latest version. The default states of Draft and Published also do not make sense

Steps to reproduce

Proposed resolution

Create a new workflow type in the crm module.

Remaining tasks

Need default state names. Maybe Active and Completed? I want to avoid 'New' because of history and the "new" tag when the user hasn't viewed it yet.

    The goal is not clear to me. Is there a specific workflow you are seeking to provide? Or is the idea to provide a starting place for a site builder to customize / create workflows

    Workflow fields might work. I will need to look at it more.

    I know we will need workflows for Case management (crm_case). I also think relationships can use workflows, and maybe contacts.

    I don't propose we include a workflow, only the ability for sitebuilders to create workflows without using Content Moderation.
