In the Process Automation module of the Kuika platform, an Instance (Active Instance of a Process) is a specific instance of a workflow or process that is being executed. Each instance encompasses all the stages that are followed from the beginning of the process and leading up to its completion. It contains the actions, transitions and state changes that occur at each step of the process.
Instances are key components of process management and are critical for monitoring the performance of processes, detecting errors and making improvements where necessary. Each instance has its own unique credentials and state information, making it easy to understand how processes are progressing and what stage they are in. Furthermore, when an instance is completed, the results and data obtained can serve as a reference for future processes. Therefore, instances play an important role in improving process efficiency and optimization.
