The first level of organization of the tasks that are required to complete your business process. By providing stages, you organize work into logical phases that users of your application follow to reach an outcome. Stages visualize milestones or significant events in your business process and can also indicate a transition of work from one person to another. For example, if your business process is to review job applications, you can create Submission, Review, and Approval stages, each of which includes a different set of actions and is performed by a different person. Stages that are necessary to resolve a case through the basic, default path are called primary stages.

In a Microjourney™, stages are the milestones that leads towards an outcome.
