HTML Launch Step Processor Page Data Flow

In order to develop a custom HTML Launch Step Processor, it is

to understand the basic HTML Launch Step Processor page data flow. A Process Open Client Launch Step Processor (such as the OOTB FnLaunchProcessor) is invoked by the Personal Workflow Manager (PWM). When an end user in the PWM launches a workflow, the appropriate Launch Step Processor client application for that workflow is launched in a browser popup window.

The following figure illustrates the basic page data flow for the OOTB HTML Launch Step Processor.

As indicated in the figure, when the end user launches a workflow definition, the workflow launcher launches the Launch Step Processor page. The only options an end user can select are to either launch the workflow or to cancel the launch. In either case, the user is redirected back to the Workflow Launcher page.
