Along with a workflow map that describes the relationship between the various types of objects and processes in a workflow, the status changes or outputs from the process are critical in adequately mapping the land clearance process. {{IMSMANG}} uses the status value of items to track where the object or process is in its workflow. Objects and processes in {{IMSMANG}} can have different status values. For example, land can be defined as "ActiveOpen", "Worked On," or "Closed," while activities that are more process-oriented can be "Planned," "Ongoing," "Completed," "Suspended," or "Aborted." Defining a set of status values for each item provides the capability to:
* manage workflows according to status
The following figures show how each programme can tailor the system to support a specific land clearance/activity workflow process for each type of land, from a traditional process for minefield clearance with multiple steps including a technical survey, clearance and completion survey to a simplified process for UXO clearance that includes only a clearance. Each example involves a single land on which one or more activities are conducted. At each step, information about the land's status and type is updated as a result of the activity.
In the figure below, a CHA is created and its status is set to "ActiveOpen"." A technical survey process is then conducted on the land, which results in changing the subcategory of the land from "CHA" to "Minefield" and defining the land's perimeter. Next, a clearance process is conducted on the minefield that results in updating the status of the land to "Worked On." Finally, a completion survey is submitted that updates the status of the land to "Closed."
