Finally, you will connect the step to the Start and Complete events. A workflow cannot be triggered unless the Start event is connected to a task. A workflow process cannot fully complete unless a task is connected to the Complete event.

1. Click the New Connector at the right of the Start event.

The New connector window is displayed.

The Connector has following properties:

Name	Narrative name for the connector.
Trigger Type	Default: The default trigger type Expired: The connector is triggered when the task expires Routing Options: For Request for Approval workflows, the Routing Options can be selected as the trigger type.
Connect To	Connects To Tasks in the workflow or to another workflow Start - connects to the workflow Start task Complete - connects to the workflow Complete task
Trigger Date	The connector is triggered when the date in the selected date field is reached. Trigger Date - The date the task is triggered. Start Date - The date in the Start Date field of the record with which the workflow is associated. End Date - The date in the End Date field of the record with which the workflow is associated. Custom Date Field - The date in a selected custom field that stores date values.
Delay (days)	Delays the connector from triggering next task for a set number of days. (Allows for four-digit entry.) Negative numbers can be used to specify that the next task should be triggered a number of days before a date in the future. Important: The recipients of the subsequent task are processed at the time the workflow fires, not after the delay. See Delay Connector Recipients for more information.
Business Day Only	Connector only triggers on Business Days.
Holiday Calendar Used	Select the SmartSimple calendar that will be used as a holiday calendar. This is used in conjunction with the Business Day Only setting.
Required Respondents	The number of respondents who must respond to the task before the connector will trigger. See also Selecting Recipients in an Acknowledgment Workflow.
Condition	A logical condition can be specified that must be met in order for the connect to trigger the next workflow task. Multiple connectors can be set up with mutually exclusive conditions to have branching logic on the workflow.
