                             Workflow Agent

The Workflow Agent file describes agents. An agent is an application that
performs a function that is requested by a Lawson application. For example,
the VW Agent program on the client PC is an agent that reads the Workflow Work
Unit file and creates Work Objects in the FileNET PANAGON Visual WorkFlo 3.0
system. Each record includes information about where document and form files
associated with the agent are located on the PC.
