CMC Activities

Workflow Designer is built using the Windows Workflow Foundation (WF) in the .NET Framework. It contains Microsoft's built-in (generic) workflow activities and activities created specifically for Campus Management Corp. products (CMC Activities).

The workflow activities designed for Anthology are grouped by namespaces as shown below. The activities include lookup functions that return values that can in turn be used within other activities in the workflow, activities related to specific products such as Constituent Relationship Management (CRM) and Student Information System (SIS), and common activities such as creating validation messages or sending email. CMC activities are used in conjunction with Generic Activities.

Properties for activities are generally defined using expressions in VB .NET code or variables. Some fields have drop-down lists and helpers that enable you to select properties.
