Asks
An Ask is created when someone kicks-off your flow. People create asks based on your flows when they need something done.
Often times, these kickoff points take place in email exchanges, meetings or calls that require folks to keep track of the information, go back for clarification and finally begin the process of completing the work. Instead of playing monkey in the middle, which can quickly turn into "chaos monkey," we've tied the ask to the process so work will naturally flow.
