Creating a work queue

Use the New Queue window to create a new work queue. When creating a queue, the workflow author, workflow administrator, and application developer typically work together to determine its properties and usage.

Tip: User queues (inboxes) are created automatically when you initialize the isolated region.

To create a new work queue:

  1. Select the Work Queues folder and click New on the toolbar.
  2. In the Queue name box, enter the name of the queue.

    To create a security queue, precede the queue name with "SQ_".

    Note: The name you enter is a logical name. the workflow system dynamically determines the physical table and index names, to prevent collisions with existing table and index names.
  3. In the Description box, you can optionally enter a brief description of the queue. You can use the description to document the purpose of the queue, or to list any special notes. The description appears in Process Designer.
  4. Click Create.
  5. Select the new queue and click Properties on the toolbar. In the Queue Properties window, you can further define the queue by creating system fields, data fields, indexes, or setting security levels.
  6. Click OK when done.
  7. Click Commit Changes on the toolbar to apply this change to your isolated region.
