Using a Workflow Policy to Start the Workflow Process

A Workflow Policy can start a Workflow Process after a database change. If the Workflow Policy conditions are met, then an action occurs. In some situations, the action calls the Workflow Process Manager server component to run a Workflow Process. Processing that a Workflow Policy starts does not occur in real time. The following are typical uses of a Workflow Process:

• EIM batch processing

• Siebel EAI inserts and updates

• Manual changes from the user interface

• Assignment Manager assignments

• Siebel Remote synchronization
