Introduction

This guide outlines the steps required to complete the following assigned tasks in e-flow:

  • Upload How2Recycle Logo
  • Supplier Approve Updated Artwork in e-flow.

Accessing e-flow

Please refer to the help guide for instructions on how to log in to e-flow (Accessing e-flow).

Accessing a Task in e-flow

A task in e-flow can be completed using either of the following methods:

  • Via the task link in the notification e-mail

  • By accessing the task from the Task Hub

Accessing the Task via the Notification E-mail

  1. Once a task is started in e-flow and assigned to you, you will receive a notification e-mail containing a link to access and complete the task.

  2. If you are already logged in to e-flow, clicking the link will take you directly to the task. If not, you will be prompted to log in, and once logged in, you will be automatically redirected to the task to complete it

Accessing the task from the Task Hub:

If you do not receive the task notification e-mail or are unable to access the task using the provided link, you can access it directly from the Task page by logging in to e-flow.

  1. Once logged in to e-flow, the home page will be displayed as shown below. You can access the Task page by either clicking on the ‘My Tasks’ widget or selecting the ‘Task Hub’ from the menu.


 Also, please find the help guide for the Task Hub in e-flow for reference (Managing Your Task List).

Transferring e-flow tasks

If you are expecting a task but cannot find it on your task page, and the task widget shows 0 tasks, this means that no tasks are currently assigned to you.

If the task has been assigned to your colleague within the same organisation, it can be transferred to you so that you can complete it.

Please click the link below for instructions on how to transfer the task.
