Pattern · Demo Assign an Owner Exactly one named person is responsible for a record at any moment, visible on the record and filterable across the collection. CoordinateMove Through Workflow Workflow topology · Demo Checklist Workflow A record advances by completing a named set of prerequisites rather than by moving through stages — the process is "what is still outstanding", not "where is it". Move Through WorkflowCoordinate Workflow topology · Demo Handoff Workflow Work crosses a boundary between teams, and the transfer itself is the risky part — so the handoff is an explicit event with a receiver, a checklist and an acceptance. Move Through WorkflowCoordinate Pattern · Demo Kanban Board Work shown as columns of cards, one column per stage, moved by dragging — the shape of the whole process visible at once, at the cost of everything a table is good at. Scan & UnderstandMove Through Workflow Pattern · Demo Lifecycle Status One named state per record, drawn from a small closed set that everyone in the business already says out loud — the single field that answers "what happens to this next". OrientMove Through Workflow Workflow topology · Demo Linear Workflow Work moves through a fixed sequence of stages in one direction — new, review, approved, complete — with one owner at a time and no branching. Move Through Workflow Pattern · Demo Review Queue A single ordered worklist that hands one person the next item to judge, with the decision available in the same view — built so the queue empties rather than so it can be browsed. Act & DecideMove Through Workflow Workflow topology · Demo Stage-Gated Workflow A record cannot advance to the next stage until stated conditions are met, and the interface says exactly which condition is blocking it. Move Through WorkflowAct & Decide Pattern · Demo Wizard A long, genuinely required task broken into ordered steps with visible progress — so the person faces a few decisions at a time instead of forty at once.
