12.5 Defining each node's task (Activity Designer)

This section describes how to define details of the task (activity) at each node.

Activity Designer is used to define the details of the task at each node. In Activity Designer, you define how the contents of the asset management database are to be updated (added, changed, deleted) on the basis of the information specified by each worker in the Item window.

An activity is defined as a combination of specific processing actions on the asset management database (tasks), such as Add new device. By combining tasks, the nodes for Items can achieve a wide variety of processing. These tasks are different from those registered in Windows Task Scheduler.

Activity Designer is displayed from Flow Designer. To display Activity Designer, select an activity defined in Flow Designer () and then click the Edit button. If an activity was registered before its definition was completed or if an Item whose status is Exhibit or Not exhibit is displayed from Flow Designer, the definition cannot be edited.
