Working with Transitions

A transition moves the record in the workflow from one state to another state. A workflow must have at least two states before you can create a transition. For an overview of transitions in SuiteFlow, including transition properties, triggers, and conditions, see Workflow Transitions.

You can use either the diagrammer or the Workflow State window to create and edit transitions. Each transition contains properties that define the state to which the workflow transitions, the trigger on which the transition executes, and any condition that must be met for the transition to execute. In addition, you can also define the transition to execute on the click of a button, on the completion of another state in a workflow, or on a schedule.

The following table describes where you can get more information about working with transitions:
