#REDIRECT [[Workflows_Overview#Suppress_Workflow_Window]]
 
 
When a [[Workflow|workflow]] step is executed the [[User|user]] is generally presented with a '''Workflow Window''' where they can select a value that will be used to determine the next task to be performed.
 
 
 
This feature is vital for [[Workflow|workflows]] that require [[User|user]] interventions, but is not required for [[Workflow|workflows]] that are used to simply send an instant message or email message to one or more [[User|users]].
 
 
 
When the [[Workflow|workflow]] is used to send a message or an email, the window is displayed for a moment and then automatically closed by the system.
 
 
 
If the [[User]] has a pop-up stopper enabled within their [[Browser|browser]], the '''Workflow Window''' will be suppressed and the [[Workflow]] will not trigger.  You must ensure that [[User|users]] of [[Workflow|workflows]] that prompt their [[Workflow]] Window, have enabled pop-up window display for your [[Instance|instance]] of [[SmartSimple]].
 
 
 
==Suppressing the Workflow Window==
 
 
If you wish to suppress the display of these window you can change the [[Workflow|workflow]] settings as follows:
 
 
1. Use the [[Configuration Menu|Configuration menu]] or [[Global Settings|Global Systems - Settings]], [[Workflow|Workflows]] to access the [[Workflow]] List.
 
 
 
2. Click on the required [[Workflow]] name.
 
 
 
3. Click the '''Suppress Workflow Window''' check box.
 
 
 
4. Click the '''Save''' button.
 
 
==Notes==
 
 
 
It is recommended that the '''Workflow Window''' is suppressed where your [[Instance|instance]] of [[SmartSimple]] is used by a broad community and you have little or no control of the [[User|user's]] [[Browser|browser]] settings, and you only require [[Workflow|workflows]] that are used to send messages.
 
 
 
You should NOT enable this feature for [[Workflow|Workflows]] that require [[User|user]] interaction.  In these circumstances you must ensure that pop-ups from [[SmartSimple]] are enabled in the [[User|user's]] [[Browser|browser]].
