Adding optional actions to stages
Provide customer service representatives (CSRs) with an ability to perform out-of-sequence tasks when your business process enters a specific stage by adding optional actions to stages.
For example, if your business process is to review a job
application, you can create a stage Candidate details that includes the Collect personal
details, Collect education history, and Collect working experience processes. If a job
candidate gives a CSR a new phone number, the CSR can update the number at any point when
processing the stage.
