Trade Workflows

Updated by Sameer Soleja

Molecule's Workflows feature helps you map & model your company's trade lifecycle in Molecule.

On the Trades screen, you can see a colored dot that shows which status a trade is in. Clicking the dot pulls up a list of statuses set for that account.

If you are able to set a certain status (due to a combination of status permission & locked/unlocked status of the trade), that option is clickable. Otherwise, it's grayed out. Note that the permission applies to setting a status, not to un-setting it.

Bulk Updates

When updating Trades status manually, you can select multiple trades and update them all at once via the Action menu. Here's how:

  • On the Trades screen, select the trades you wish to update. You can do this by clicking on each trade while holding down the appropriate key (usually Ctrl or Cmd).
  • Once you have selected the trades, open the Actions menu.
  • From the Actions menu, choose the Set Workflow Status option and select the desired workflow status from the available options.
A: You can set a status on a trade when (a) you have permissions for that status and (b) the trade is unlocked. If any of the selected trades are locked, the Set Workflow Status option will be inactive and marked with a padlock icon. Locked trades cannot have their status changed until they are unlocked
