Creating a Policy Action

Workflow policy actions define the events that you want to occur when the conditions of your Workflow policy are met. In the NREC example, the action is to run a workflow process.

To create a policy action

1. Navigate to Administration - Business Process > Actions.
2. In the Actions list, add a new record to specify what actions the policy should trigger.

   In the current example, the required fields and their values are shown in the following table.

   Field	Value	Comment
   Name	NREC Opportunity Notification	The name of the action can be any name meaningful to you.
   Program	Run Workflow Process	This value specifies that the policy triggers a workflow process.
   Workflow Object	Opportunity	Name of the object associated with the workflow policy.

3. In the Arguments list, add records for the necessary arguments.

   In the current example, the required fields and their values are shown in the following table.

   Argument	Value	Comment
   Argument	ProcessName	Because you previously specified Run Workflow Process, ProcessName is the only item in the pick list.
   Value	NREC New Opportunity Notification	This value is the name of the process you created as described in Creating a Workflow Process. The workflow process must be active for it to appear in the drop-down list for the Value field.
