Workflows are the unit of work in the platform — one workflow per engagement, audit, filing, or task that needs to be completed for a client.
- Click Workflows in the sidebar.
- Click the Add Workflow button in the top right.
- On the Add Workflow page, choose one of two starting points:
- Create New Workflow — a blank workflow you build from scratch.
- Clone From Template — pre-populates items and structure from one of your workflow templates so you don't start from zero.
- Fill in the workflow details:
- Name — a descriptive title (e.g. "Q4 2026 VAT Return — Acme Ltd").
- Client — the client this workflow is for. The client's services pre-filter the service dropdown.
- Service — the service being delivered. Drives billing rules and reporting.
- Period — Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, Yearly, or Custom. Helps with bulk creation and reporting.
- Start date, End date, Due date — used in scheduling and overdue calculations.
- Owners — accountable for delivery (typically managers or partners).
- Assignees — the team members actually doing the work.
- Click Create.
You land on the workflow's Workspace where you can add items, assign individual fields to teammates, and start completing the work.
Tip: From the workflows list, the three-dot menu in the top right offers more creation options: Bulk Create (one template across many clients at once), Bulk Related Services (auto-create follow-on workflows for services that depend on other services), and Import (bring workflows in from Excel).
What you can do on the workflow detail page
- Details tab — change client, service, dates, owners, and visibility.
- Workspace tab — work through the items; switch to Edit Mode to add, reorder, or remove items.
- Collaboration tab — internal comments and (if shared) client-facing comments with mentions and file attachments.
- Time & Billing tab — log time, add expenses, configure the budget, and bill the workflow (if invoicing is enabled).
