==Overview==
 
SmartSimple's UTA '''[[Configuring UTA Provider/Receiver (Consumer) Relationships|Provider/Consumer Relationships]]''' allows for the sharing of data between different [[UTA|UTAs]].The UTA providing the data (the source UTA) is referred to as the '''Provider''' while the UTA receiving the data is referred to as the '''Consumer'''.This feature allows for a Consumer / Provider relationship to be created using the [[Workflows - Overview|Workflow]] subsystem, and without the use of custom scripting.
 
 
 
 
 
==Creating a Consumer / Provider Workflow==
 
Start by creating a single step workflow.  Detailed instructions on creating a single step Workflow can be found '''[[Creating a Single Step Workflow|here]]'''.

# Press the '''"+"''' '''New Workflow''' icon
 
# Select the '''Workflow Type''', give the workflow a '''Name''', select the '''Trigger When''' action, and complete any other relevant fields.
 
# Click '''Save'''
