Working with the Built-In Workflow Activities
It’s helpful to keep thinking of a workflow as mapping the steps of your business process to a set of activities in your workflow. You might have activities that call internal code for validating a purchase order, reach out to web services to look up a price, or call a member of a referenced assembly to calculate taxes. Your activities might branch based on dollar thresholds. You might use the activities to execute approval tasks in parallel.
The activities in Windows Workflow are a rich set of tools designed to make all these business activities (and more) possible. This section provides a reference on how each of the Activity controls in the Toolbox is meant to operate.
