About managing workflows

You can use Process Administrator to manage the processing of workflows and work items in these ways:

Important: Before you perform any of these actions, you should understand the differences between modifying workflows vs. work items. When you perform these actions on a workflow, Process Administrator applies the changes you make to all of the work items that make up the workflow. See About workflows vs. work items for more information.

Search mode

You must set the search mode to Edit to modify work. If your search mode is Read only, change the search mode to Edit and re-execute your search.
