Projects Tab; Enterprise Server Tab - Novell ADMINSTUDIO 9.5 User Manual

Projects Tab

Purpose
From the Projects tab, you can create, execute, and delete projects. You can also access existing projects. The
drop-down filter above the Project pane allows you to view all available projects, or only a specific project.
Each project must be based on an existing workflow. In this way, projects are similar to photocopies from a master
instruction sheet—all planning and design of the procedure is done to the workflow. The project is a copy of that
workflow, and multiple projects can be based on the same workflow if you are performing the same procedure.
Integration with AdminStudio Workflow Manager
AdminStudio Workflow Manager is a Web-based application that manages the application lifecycle, incorporating
standards (data) and methodologies (process). AdminStudio Workflows and Workflow Manager Workflows can be
integrated, so that an AdminStudio Project can be a Workflow Phase in a Workflow Manager Workflow.

the Projects tab:
