# Flow Classic

## General <a href="#general" id="general"></a>

This document guides on installing and configuring the **Human Resource Management** Applications.

Each application contains unique workflows for specific functions and each function will need to be installed into a licensed Novacura environment.

## Workflows

This suite of applications contains the following apps.

* Submit Absence Requests
* Manage Absence Requests

## Pre-requisites <a href="#pre-requisites" id="pre-requisites"></a>

All the roles, connectors, and properties of the **Human Resource Management** solution must be imported before importing workflows.

### System and Version

<table><thead><tr><th width="374">System</th><th>Version</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>IFS Applications</td><td>10</td></tr><tr><td>IFS Application Configuration Package</td><td>NC_CONSTRUCTION</td></tr><tr><td>Novacura Flow Server</td><td>6.12</td></tr><tr><td>Novacura Flow Studio</td><td>6.12</td></tr><tr><td>Connectors</td><td>Database</td></tr></tbody></table>

### Flow Connectors

#### IFS Connector

If you do not have a connector set up, you can see an example [here](https://docs.novacura.com/extensibility-and-integration/products/studio/connectors/database/ifs-apps-10/how-to-guides/configuration).

{% hint style="warning" %}
If you already have an IFS Applications 10 connector setup, you can skip this step and use the existing connector instead.
{% endhint %}

### Flow Properties

#### Flow Classic

Before installing the workflows, it is required to create several **Global** Flow Properties within Novacura Flow Studio.

#### Flow Text Properties

<table><thead><tr><th>Flow Property</th><th width="150">Example Value</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>AppOwner</td><td>ifsapp</td><td>IFS environment application owner (Schema)</td></tr><tr><td>CONST_SelectedProject</td><td>1004</td><td>A user property to store the selected Project</td></tr></tbody></table>

#### Flow Connect

For Flow Connect we have moved the Flow property CONST\_SelectedProject to be stored in IFS under Employee File - Employment - Free Fields.

The property AppOwner is set during Connector setup in Flow Connect.

For details see [IFS Applications 10 Connector Setup](https://docs.novacura.com/flow-connect/working-with-connect/connect-to-systems/connectors/ifs-applications-10#configuration-values)

### IFS Custom Application Package

Before installing the workflows, it is required to import IFS Application Configuration Package called **NC\_CONSTRUCTION**.

For details see [Import Application Configuration Packages](https://docs.novacura.com/extensibility-and-integration/products/erp/ifs-app-10/how-to-guides/import-application-configuration-packages)

## Installation <a href="#installation" id="installation"></a>

{% hint style="warning" %}
Make sure that you have created all connectors and Flow properties before importing the workflows.
{% endhint %}

### 1. Import Workflows

Import workflows in the file "Human Resource Management.wap."

For details see [Import Workflows](https://docs.novacura.com/extensibility-and-integration/products/studio/applications/workflow/how-to-guides/import-workflows)

### 2. Setting Menu Roles

Together with the imported workflows, there will also be a menu. Connect the menu to your roles to make them available for users.

For details see [Setting Menu Roles](https://docs.novacura.com/extensibility-and-integration/products/studio/applications/workflow/how-to-guides/setting-menu-roles)

### 3. Publishing Workflows

Within the Server Contents Window, right-click on the Construction Apps folder and select “*Publish*.” This process can take a few minutes but once complete, a Publish Successful message will be displayed.

If you receive any errors during the publication of the workflow, please review the error detail and consult your support contact with the relevant information.

For details see [Publishing Workflows](https://docs.novacura.com/extensibility-and-integration/products/studio/applications/workflow/how-to-guides/publishing-workflows)

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.novacura.com/marketplace-documentation/applications/explore-apps/ifs/human-resource-management/installation/flow-classic.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
