This provides the individual participants a large degree of autonomy, while reaching the group’s objective efficiently under many different circumstances.
There are 3 types of workflow rules that can be included:

A step is not executed until its pre-conditions are met, and is not completed until it satisfies the rules for completion. Workflow automation steps are not executed until its pre-conditions are met, and is not completed until it satisfies the rules for completion.
