Define a Workflow Action for the New Component
Define an action as a component to be added in Workflow layouts. An action needs to be defined for the new table component to be shown in workflow task pages. Note that the resource bundle entries for all custom actions should be defined in the com.ptc.windchill.enterprise.object.CustomRB file. For more information on how to create a new resource bundle file, see Adding New Resource Bundle Entries.
