Configure each decision point with conditions based on approval amounts or roles. For Zakat scenarios, you might have: Level 1 (RM1,000-RM5,000) → Officer approval, Level 2 (RM5,001-RM10,000) → Supervisor approval, Level 3 (RM10,001+) → Manager approval. Use Business Rule components to determine approval levels based on application amounts. **Q: How can I pass user-specific data to dynamically generated forms in subsequent process steps?** A: Use Process Variables to store user data from initial forms and pass them to subsequent Form Task components. Configure the form to pre-populate fields using the stored variables. For example, in a Zakat application: Store applicant details in variables during initial submission, then use those variables to pre-fill verification forms for officers. **Q: How do I implement conditional form fields that appear based on previous user selections?** A: Use the Conditional Logic feature in Form Builder. Select any component, go to the Conditional Logic section, and configure conditions. For Zakat applications: If user selects "Berpencen" in employment status, show "Jumlah Pencen" field; if "Bekerja Sendiri", show "Pendapatan Perniagaan" field. **Q: How can I integrate external systems (like JPN for IC verification) into my processes?** A: Use API Call components in Process Builder. Configure the API endpoint, authentication, request/response handling, and error management. For Zakat scenarios: Create API calls to JPN for IC verification, bank systems for account validation, or government databases for income verification. **Q: How do I implement parallel processing where multiple tasks can be completed simultaneously?** A: Use multiple Form Task components connected to the same Decision Point. Configure each task to be assigned to different users or roles. For Zakat processing: Simultaneously assign document verification to one officer, income verification to another, and home visit scheduling to a third officer. **Q: How can I implement dynamic task assignment based on workload or expertise?** A: Use Business Rule components to determine task assignment logic. Configure rules based on user availability, expertise, or current workload. For Zakat scenarios: Assign complex cases to senior officers, simple cases to junior officers, or route based on applicant location. **Q: How do I handle process exceptions and create alternative paths when standard procedures fail?** A: Use Decision Point components with error handling conditions. Configure API Call components with "Continue on Error" options and create alternative paths. For Zakat applications: If IC verification fails, route to manual verification; if income verification fails, request additional documents. **Q: How can I implement time-based escalations for overdue tasks?** A: Use Notification components with time-based triggers. Configure escalation rules in Business Rule components. For Zakat processing: If verification task is not completed within 3 days, automatically escalate to supervisor and send reminder notifications. **Q: How do I implement data validation across multiple process steps?** A: Use Business Rule components at each critical decision point. Configure validation rules that check data consistency across steps. For Zakat applications: Validate that income declared in initial form matches supporting documents in verification step. **Q: How can I implement audit trails and compliance tracking for sensitive processes?** A: Use the built-in audit logging features. Configure process variables to track all changes and decisions. For Zakat processing: Log all approval decisions, document uploads, verification results, and final outcomes for compliance reporting. **Q: How do I implement role-based access control for different process stages?** A: Configure user roles and permissions in the system settings. Assign specific roles to Form Task components. For Zakat workflows: Assign application submission to public users, verification to officers, approval to supervisors, and final review to managers. **Q: How can I implement process analytics and performance monitoring for continuous improvement?** A: Use the Process Analytics dashboard to track key metrics. Monitor completion times, bottleneck identification, and user performance. For Zakat processing: Track average processing time, approval rates, rejection reasons, and officer productivity for process optimization.
