A workflow consists of a sequence of connected steps. It is a depiction of a sequence of operations, declared as work of a person, a group of persons,an organization of staff, or one or more simple or complex mechanisms. Workflow may be seen as any abstraction of real work, For control purposes workflow may be a view on real work under a chosen aspect, thus serving as a virtual representation of actual work. The flow being described often refers to a document that is being transferred from one step to another.
A workflow is a model to represent real work for further assessment. More abstractly, a workflow is a pattern of activity enabled by a systematic organization of resources, defined roles and mass, energy and information flows, into a work process that can be documented and learned.
Workflows are designed to achieve processing intents of some sort, such as physical transformation, service provision, or information processing.
