Workflows can now be triggered based on a value in a custom field on the object using browser script. The workflow id is passed to the system from the script.
You must first create the workflow. Once it has been created you need to find the workflow ID (wfid) as follows:
- From the list view of Workflows right-click on the appropriate workflow and select Properties.
- The URL/Address displayed will have the wfid:
http://youraddress.smartsimple.com/WFE2/wf_viewworkflow.jsp?wfid=98765
For the above example the workflow ID is 98765
In the browser script you would use the following syntax:
Level 1:
_triggerwf(@opportunityid@,workflowid);
Level 2:
_triggerwf(@eventid@,workflowid,26);
(26 is the objecttype for Level 2 activities, and will be the same for all Level 2 workflows)
NOTE: If you are using a script initiated by a workflow in a UTA you must ensure that the status is not used by any other workflow. This is because you can only have one workflow per status.
