Mental Model
Kodexa models real-world business workflow challenges around unstructured data by starting with Activity. Tasks are incorporated into that Activity model as the human-work points where judgment, approval, exception handling, or correction is needed.- Activity: a run of automated work, defined by an Activity Plan, with inputs, steps, dependencies, status, logs, and results.
- Task: a unit of human work inside an Activity, owned by a person or queue, reviewable, completable, and tied to the workflow when judgment is needed.
- Workflow: the choreography between Activities and Tasks. Activities create Tasks when a human decision is needed; Tasks can start Activities when their status changes.
- Project: the workspace where the right document types, resources, Activity Plans, review surfaces, and permissions are bound together for a business use case.
Where To Go Next
- Activities explain how Kodexa models automated business process runs.
- Tasks explain where human review and judgment fit inside those runs.
- Projects explain the workspace boundary for a business process.
- Project templates explain reusable project setup.
- Activity Plans explain how automated work is configured and run.
- Knowledge system explains how Kodexa represents reusable knowledge.
- Working with exceptions explains where human review fits.
