Task Flow

In CA Identity Manager, an admin task consists of one or more tabs that represent a logical grouping of functionality. For example, the Modify User task may include a Profile tab, Admin Roles tab, and a Groups tab. Task flow determines how users move from one tab to another while using the admin task.

CA Identity Manager provides three task flow options:

• Independent tabs—Users can use the tabs in any order.
• Wizards—Users are guided through the tabs by a wizard interface.
• Sequences—Users complete one tab in the task, and then CA Identity Manager automatically opens the next tab.

  The sequence tab flow option supports dynamic page flows using customized logic.

The task flow is determined by the tab controller. You specify the tab controller on the Tabs tab when you create or modify an admin task.
