Glossary
The words of documentation, explained simply.
Procedure, SOP, approval workflow, SSO: the definitions you need to document your processes.
Procedure
A series of precise steps to carry out a task the same way every time, whoever does it.
SOP
Standard Operating Procedure. A reference document that describes how a task must be done in an organisation.
Work instruction
A detailed, step-by-step description of how to carry out an operation. Often more concrete than a procedure, which can stay general.
Knowledge base
A space where an organisation gathers its guides, procedures and FAQs, so everyone can find information on their own.
Onboarding
Integrating a new employee, or getting to grips with a new tool. Good procedures make it shorter and less dependent on colleagues.
First-line support
First level of support: it handles simple, frequent requests (password, access, installation) and escalates complex cases.
Approval workflow
The steps a document goes through before publication: writing, review, approval. It guarantees that the published version is the reference.
Version
The state of a procedure at a given moment. Keeping the history shows what changed, and lets you roll back.
SSO
Single Sign-On. Users sign in with their company account, with no extra password.
OIDC
OpenID Connect, the standard authentication protocol used by Entra ID, Okta or Auth0 for SSO.
GDPR
General Data Protection Regulation. It governs the collection and processing of personal data in the European Union.
Blurring
Hiding part of a screenshot (email, username, amount) to share a procedure without exposing personal data.
