Creating collaboration areas include building, reserving,
and releasing items within the collaboration area.
Building collaboration areas by role
Depending on a user's authorization, each user is presented
with a list of workflows or business processes in the collaboration
area.
Reserving and releasing items
You can reserve, reserve and edit, and unreserve items
in a particular workflow step. You can also perform actions on the
items, to ensure that the item moves to the next step in the workflow.
Creating a collaboration area
A collaboration area is a runtime instance
of a workflow. You create a collaboration area so that users can work
with items or categories in a workflow.
