Changing the Order of Workflow RulesWhen you create a workflow rule, Oracle CRM On Demand automatically assigns the rule to the next unused order number for the rules that are based on the same record type and the same trigger event. If the trigger event for the workflow rule is After Association With Parent or After Dissociation From Parent, then Oracle CRM On Demand automatically assigns the rule to the next unused order number for rules that are based on the same record type, the same trigger event, and the same parent record type. For workflow rules that have a trigger event other than Scheduled Event, the order number determines the order in which Oracle CRM On Demand invokes a sequence of workflow rules that are based on the same record type and the same trigger event, and if applicable, on the same parent record type. You can change the order of your rules. NOTE: Workflow rules that have the Scheduled Event trigger event are also assigned an order number but they are not performed in sequence. The order number is read-only for scheduled events. For example, if you create a workflow rule based on the Account record type, with the trigger event, Before Record Is Deleted, and two workflow rules already have the same record type and trigger event, then your new rule is assigned order number 3. You can later change the order number, so that your new rule is the first rule invoked for the specified record type and trigger event. The following procedure describes how to change the order of a workflow rule. To change the order of workflow rules
NOTE: If you delete a workflow rule, the other rules based on the same record type and the same trigger event are automatically reordered. However, if you make a workflow rule inactive, its order within the list of rules based on the same record type and the same trigger event does not change (but the rule is not invoked).
