Publish, pause, and monitor enterprise workflow rules that fire on domain events.
Start with the snapshot below. Then Flowcharts. Scenario: Publish a workflow rule.
Live operations floor
Workflow Studio is the register of enterprise rules that listen to domain events — a leave request, an overdue approval, a ticket SLA breach, a failed integration — and then notify, route, or call a connector. It does not invent a second work tracker. Published rules fire against Employee, timesheet, leave, ticket, and approval records you already have. Drafts stay silent until you turn them on.

See every automation in one place — published, draft, paused, failing — then publish so a rule starts matching live events, or pause so it stops without deleting the graph. KPIs cover last-week success and failure. Deep edits (trigger, conditions, actions) live on the Rule builder tab; this screen is the operations desk.
Org administrators and HR administrators whose role can open Admin and whose org has workflow automation switched on. Contributors, managers, and finance personas do not get this menu. If the flag is off or the persona is denied, the route shows access denied — there is no employee-facing version of the studio.
Open the studio, scan the insight strip, filter the register, then publish or pause a row. Export CSV when change-control needs a snapshot of what is live. Jump to Rule builder to change the graph, then return here to publish. Pause a live rule before you edit it so half-applied graphs never fire.
After a new leave or approval policy, when you need a follow-on notify or route. When failure rate spikes and a connector is misbehaving. Before a release, to pause fragile rules. At go-live, to turn drafts on. After an incident, to export exactly what was published. Not for day-to-day task tracking — that stays on My Work and domain screens.
Review the register, publish a draft, then watch runs.
