About workflow and event searches

Process Administrator can search for workflows, work items, and workflow events based on the options you choose. You can specify criteria to focus your search precisely. For example, you can search for all the workflows that your manager sent only to you.

You can also count the number of rows that your search returns. Because work items are constantly changing, the count might differ slightly from your actual results when you run your search.

You must choose the workflow view you want to see. You can choose from workflows, work items, and events. Each view presents information about the workflow from a different perspective.

When you have selected the view, you must choose an area in which to search. Depending upon the view you have chosen, you can choose from workflow rosters, queues (user, component, work, system) and event logs.
