APHIS Workflow Paths

This PowerPoint reviews the “happy path” for each of the workflows and does not include any alternate or exception flows.

The functional designs corresponding to each of these workflows have been approved by OCFO and APHIS.

If the application is not received through Pega, then the two-step signature process for agreements and amendments is replaced with a single step for offline signatures.

The steps for the Recipient Signatory Official and Agency Signatory Official will be replaced with a single step for the Grants Specialist.

Example: Agreement Workflow, Slide 6:

Is replaced withSlide4
