Definition of Workflow management
Workflow management is a system of overseeing the process of passing information, documents, and tasks from one employee or machine within a business to another.
Through proper workflow management, each of these employees or machines will pass the work on according to a predetermined procedure.
As technology advances, much workflow management has become automated and takes advantage of special software to make the process much smoother.
