Working with Conditions

You can use conditions on workflow initiation, workflow actions, and workflow transitions. Use these conditions to restrict for whom, when, and on which record instances a workflow initiates or actions and transitions execute. To create conditions you can use the:

• Condition Builder: see Defining a Condition with the Condition Builder.

• Formula Builder: see Defining a Condition with Formulas.

• Saved Search: see Saved Searches.

Note:

You can create composite conditions, that is, one condition containing field value comparisons, a formula, and a saved search. In these cases, all conditions must evaluate to true for a workflow instance to initiate or an action or transition to execute. If the condition includes a saved search, the workflow action or transition will only execute on the record instances the search returns.

For examples of the use of conditions see:
