Overview
Workflows let Glossa discover the business processes implied by your project's requirements — who's involved, what triggers the process, what the outcome is — and represent each one as an editable diagram. Instead of requirements sitting as a flat list, Workflows groups related requirements into the end-to-end processes they support, so you can review and validate process-level understanding with your client, not just requirement-by-requirement.
Accessing Workflows
Navigate to your project
Click Workflows in the left navigation
Discovering Workflows
Glossa can scan your project's requirements and propose candidate workflows automatically.
Find Workflows — discovers new workflow candidates from requirements that aren't yet part of a workflow
Update Workflows — re-scans to refine existing workflows as requirements change
Only one discovery run can be active for a project at a time. If you start a run while another is already in progress, Glossa tells you a run is already active rather than starting a second one.
The Workflow Diagram
Each workflow is represented as a process-map diagram showing:
The trigger that starts the process
The people, departments, and systems involved (its actors)
The branching steps between trigger and outcome
The outcome the process ends in
You can edit a workflow's diagram directly — describe the change you want and Glossa applies it with AI and updates the diagram in place.
Creating and Editing Workflows Manually
Besides automatic discovery, you can:
Add a workflow manually — provide a name, trigger, outcome, description, and the departments/people/systems involved, and optionally link existing requirements to it
Edit a workflow — update its details or which requirements it's linked to
Merge workflows — combine two workflows that describe the same process into one; relationships and requirement links transfer to the surviving workflow
Requirement Writeback
Workflows can propose new or updated requirements based on gaps found while mapping a process — for example, a step with no requirement backing it yet. Review each proposal and accept it to add it to your project's requirements, or dismiss it.
