Once you have created the [[Workflow|workflow]] you can attach it to the object that it was designed for. If you wish, you can use the same [[Workflow|workflow]] for multiple similar objects.
[[Workflow|Workflows]] associated with folders and companies are inherited by lower level folders and companies. In this example, you will attach the '''New Contact Added''' [[Workflow|workflow]] to an [[External|external]] company but the [[Workflow|workflow]] will be triggered whenever a new contact is added to that company or any of its sub-companies.
1. Click '''Organizations''', [[External]] Contacts.
2. Create a new [[External|external]] company named '''Acme''' and save the new company.
Click the '''Contact Workflow''' combo box. The '''New Contact Added''' [[Workflow|workflow]] is displayed. Only [[Workflow|workflows]] with an object type of [[User]] will be displayed.
3. Select the '''New Contact Added''' [[Workflow|workflow]] and click '''Save'''.
