Creating And Using Projects; Creating Workflows With The New Workflow Project Wizard - Novell ADMINSTUDIO 9.5 User Manual

Creating and Using Projects

Projects, which are based on existing workflows, are the procedures followed to accomplish a set goal. Projects
may include instructions describing what to do, and perhaps links to tools necessary to perform tasks. They also
allow you to provide notes to help document issues that may arise during a project.
