Description

Here are some suggestions to enhance workflow:
1. Ability to hide unused statuses in workflow definition
At applications level we create many statuses and use only the appropriate ones for creating different workflows. This
creates large number of options when we are at workflow definition screen and it's very difficult to work with or understand
the workflows. We can do either of the following two options to make workflow definitions easier.
a. Use AJAX to hide unused statuses
b. Create ability to add/remove statuses for a particular workflow from the global set

2. Workflow visualization
Once the workflow is defined, if it can be represented in a decision tree either pictorially or using some formatted
table it could be easier to manage. I was thinking of converting organizational processes into Redmine workflow, and
a pictorial representation will appear as the process definition. Conditions for status changes may be missing in this
workflow - that would make it too complicated as well - and that is OK.
