## Workflow Overview

Workflow allows you to assign a series of steps to the document creation and management process. For example, a "News" workflow might have documents which go from Research to Draft to Under Review to Published, with different people participating in the document's lifecycle at each stage. Naturally, not all documents have the same needs in terms of workflow: Invoices (which must be drawn up, mailed, and then marked as paid) are very different from Marketing documents.

To facilitate this, KnowledgeTree allows the Administrator to define a number of different workflows, each of which can be applied to different documents as their organisation requires.
