workflows

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Dear All,

 

I need to clarify the key difference between synchronous workflow(Real time workflows) and custom workflow.  in which situation we are going to develop the custom workflow.

Please share me your valuable information about this.

    There is no need to think about whether you will be using your custom workflow step in real-time workflow (synchronous) or back ground workflow(asynchronous) while registrering the plugin. Once you registered the assembly then its upto you to use it in real-time workflow or background worflow based on your business requirement.

    If you want to run your custom workflow step in real time use it in a real time workflow so that it will be executed synchromusly and user will see the update in real time. If your custom workflow is a long running process and there is no need to see changes real time then use your custom workflow step in background workflow .
