IT Activities define activities for processes.
Properties
The document type it-activity provides the following properties:
Superordinate Activity
Activities may be composed. This is a reference to the superordinate activity this activity is part of.
The value is typically automatically provided by the parent document.
Type
Specify the type of the IT activity to organize them.
Use the IT Activity Type Doctype to define types of activities.
Triggered by
List triggers this activity listens to.
The property is hidden. The list of triggers is rendered in a section of this document.
Sections
Description
Describe the activity.
Descriptions of activities are brief and associated to the IT Processes they are part of. For a description of the work to be done by which people, use the IT Procedure Doctype. If you even need to get more detailed on the working steps, provide work instructions.
Triggers
Automatically generated list of triggers that starts this activity.
The list is based on the triggers listed in Triggered by.
Notes
These are internal notes that are usually not exported and only visible to team members with write access.
But this is not a safe place to store sensible information. It is just a convenience for the reader to not be bothered with notes stored here for the authors for later use. The security level is about suppressing the representation by a CSS style. Therefore consider this as a convenience for the reader, not as a security tool.
References
For a document the references section contains pointers to resources that prove the statements of the document.
Often these proofs are not easily distinguishable from further information. In this case you may want to skip the reference section in favour for the resource list.
Resources
The resources section provides references to further information to the topic of the document.
This may be information on the internet provided by the resource or information in the team's information systems. Anything the reader of the resource might want to know, may be listed here.
