About Object Workflows

Use object workflows to automate business processes. When you create an object workflow, you state which business object you're impacting, such as Opportunity. You also define the actions that should take place in the application.

Conditions are events that occur immediately when the application implements your configured actions, unless you have defined a time rule (execution schedule) for one or more actions.

This figure illustrates how you configure and trigger object workflows.
