Control exactly how items move through your process - not just where they end up, but which moves are allowed and which aren't.
Define your stages as states, then define the transitions between them. An item can only move from one state to another if a transition record exists connecting them. Every state change is logged automatically, so you always know not just the current state, but the full path that got it there.
Works for any process where sequence and control matter - content publishing pipelines, approval chains, support ticket resolution, hiring stages, release workflows, or any other multi-step flow where skipping steps causes problems.
