Task Settings

Trigger Workflow Tasks have the following settings:

  • Name - Narrative name for the task.
  • Task Number - A system generated number that determines the presentation order of the task in the workflow. This number can be changed to display the step in a different location.
  • Description - Detailed description of the task (optional).
  • Expire After - Intended duration of the workflow.
  • Trigger Workflow - Select the workflow that should be triggered from this dropdown menu.
  • Record id / Variable - this setting should contain the unique record ID for the record against which the selected workflow should be triggered. This record ID can be referenced using variables.
  • Examples: If the workflow to be triggered is a User type workflow, you would need to provide a User ID for the contact record against which you would want the workflow to be triggered.
  • If the workflow is to be triggered against a series of Level 2s attached to a Level 1 record, you could use List Syntax to define a list of activities meeting certain criteria against which the workflow should be triggered. See Selecting an eventid from a list of records for examples.
