==Workflow management==
Basu and Kumar note that the term "workflow management" has been used to refer to tasks associated with the flow of information through the [[value chain]] rather than the flow of material goods: they characterise the definition, analysis and management of information as "workflow management". They note that workflow can be managed within a single organisation, where distinct roles are allocated to individual resources, and also across multiple organisations or distributed locations, where attention needs to be paid to the interactions between activities which are located at the organizational or locational boundaries. The transmission of information from one organization to another is a critical issue in this inter-organizational context and raises the importance of tasks they describe as "validation", "verification" and "data usage analysis".<ref>Basu, A. and Kumar, A., [https://www.jstor.org/stable/23015820 Research Commentary: Workflow Management Issues in e-Business], ''Information Systems Research'', volume 13, no. 1, March 2002, pp. 1-14, accessed 1 December 2022</ref>
