After selecting the Workflow option from the FAB workbench the below screen is presented without any data. To populate your requirements select a template.
After choosing one of the templates the screen is automatically updated with the information that best suits the template that you have chosen. This can then be edited according to specific requriements. In the below screenshot 'Draft and Submit' was chosen followed by 'One Level Approval' resulting in the data shown.
Action Allowed for Current Status
In the above screen the fields represent the following:
...
non blank - the form has been saved and it is at the 'Curent Status' stage

Prompt Before Action Function:
The Prompt Before Action Function allows you to enter a JavaScript function name, which must exist in a 'Script' element of the Form. This function is called before the action takes place.
Implement this if you need to have a prompt asking for a user's input before the App can proceed with the action.
Validation Function:
The Validation Function allows you to enter a JavaScript function name, which must exist in a 'Script' element of the Form. This function is called when the Form is attempted to be submitted (if the ByPass Validations setting on the action is false). The function allows client-side validations to be performed before sending the data to the back-end. If the function returns false, the call to the back-end is aborted.
Generally, most validations are done on the back-end in SAP (via implementation class and method VALIDATIONS_ON_SAVE). This Validation function allows some checks to be made before sending the data to the back-end.
Success Function:
The Success Function is a JavaScript function which must exist in a Script element in the Form. The function is called after the call to the back-end is successful and allows a deviation from the default behavior (which is usually to exit the form) [if Go Back is true on the action].
Implement this function if you do not want to go back to the main menu when the action is successful, but rather go back to the previous Page and refresh the list on that Page. It can be useful where an app has two pages - the first one being a list, and the second the main detail page.
