Start and manage workflows in the Bitrix24 mobile app. Check how long approvals take and reduce delays.

This article explains how time indicators work and how to optimize your workflows.

Start a workflow

2. Go to Menu.
3. Open the Workflows tab.

1. Read the instructions and tap Continue.
2. Fill in the required fields.
3. Tap Start.

Your request will appear in the Workflows tab. You can track its progress there.

Reduce workflow execution time

If a workflow takes too long, review its structure and steps.

Common issues to check:

• No backup during absence. If someone is unavailable or overloaded, tasks can stall. Reassign tasks or involve additional team members.

• Unclear starting point. If users don’t know what to do first, the workflow slows down. Add clear instructions to each field.

• Delayed approvals. Approvers may miss requests. Add reminder notifications to keep things moving.

Use the Workflow Designer to update templates and automate task assignments.
