Add the ability to move back and forth in a workflow without building loopback steps

We'd like to be able to move tasks in a workflow even if there is no loopback prebuilt with ever workflow step.

    Hi Luis,

    We'd ideally like to be able to just move the tasks to any workflow step at any time. For example, if something needs to go all the way back to translation, we'd prefer to just do one action to move the tasks instead of a reject loopback for each step backwards. If we need to build all possible loopbacks, that could create some overly complicated workflows depending on how many human steps there are with options to move backwards to any of the human steps. We'd also like this from an admin level and not necessarily the option for linguists to choose to move something backwards.

    There've been some other TMS solutions I've worked with and I really liked how easily it was to move tasks back and forth if needed.

    Best,

    Russell

  • Hi Russell,

    Could you elaborate a bit on this one? I'm not sure I fully understand the ask. We recently released a default "Flexible" Workflow template that has as many loopbacks as possible built in already. I'm assuming you are referring to custom built workflows? Specifically I'm interested to understand what the challenge is with building a custom workflow once that has all the possible loopbacks vs. what you propose.

    Thanks,
    Luis
