Finally: Time to Deploy Your First YAWL Workflow

How does a YAWL workflow execute after deployment?
This video demonstrates how a completed YAWL workflow is deployed and executed using the YAWL control center.

The tutorial walks through the full lifecycle of a workflow case, from initial submission to final completion. Using a leave request process as an example, the video shows how a case is started, how tasks are assigned to different users, and how YAWL distributes work items according to role assignments and execution context.

Multiple user accounts are used to illustrate how tasks move between participants during execution. The walkthrough makes visible how the control center supports monitoring and interaction with running workflow cases.

The example provides practical insight into how YAWL workflows behave at runtime and how control flow, resource allocation, and task execution come together in a deployed workflow.
