Description

This is a voting process used as sub-process in a wide range of processes. It is very configurable and is not intended to be used standalone. If you want to configure how voting is handled in the application, this is the process to configure.

Start event

A start event is an event that triggers the workflow, for example starting the workflow when an asset is created.
