You can run a data entry workflow template version in test mode. If you do so, no history is logged when you initiate a data entry workflow based on the workflow template.

If you have started a data entry workflow in test-mode:

• The workflow dialog is opened with the first step of the workflow. So, you do not need to navigate to the form as defined in the dynamic menu form setup.
• When you complete a step:
  • The entered data is stored in a staging table.
  • Automatically the next step is opened on the workflow dialog.
• When you finish the data entry workflow, the entered data is saved in the target tables. Therefore, you are advised not to use the test-mode in your production environment.
• When you have finished testing, you can deactivate the workflow template version. Based on your test results, you can make changes to the version.
