Users on Asite having the role privilege 'Manage Workflow Rules' can start a workflow on any files accessible to them, depending on the workflow configuration.

Note: This option will not work if a workflow is already running on the selected files.

Below are the steps to start a workflow on a file:

1. Right-click on a file / a set of files, depending on the folder in which the workflow is configured and select the 'Start Workflow' option.

2. The screen to start the workflow will appear. Here, you must select the workflow that needs to be started on the selected files.

3. Use the checkbox corresponding to the workflow record to select that particular workflow.

4. After selecting the checkbox for the concerned workflow, click the 'Start' link at the bottom of the pop-up screen to confirm starting the workflow. A prompt indicates that the workflow has been initiated for the chosen files.

5. Once the workflow is started, the workflow status for selected files will appear as 'RUNNING'. You can click on the workflow status to see its progress (See Managing Workflow Instances).
