− | You can use the '''Create New Activity''' Workflow Task Type to automatically create and attach one or more Level 2 records to a Level 1 record.
| + | {{DeprecatedPage}} |
− | * This workflow will be driven by a [[Status]] change on the Level 1 record.
| |
− | * The '''Create New Activity''' workflow will also trigger any relevant Auto-assignments, Level 2 Workflows and Level 2 Formulas.
| |

− | The workflow can either:
| |
− | * Create the same array of Level 2 record(s) for each Level 1
| |
− | ::or
| |
− | * Have the number and Type of Level 2 records created controlled by a field on the Level 1 record ([[#Custom Field Driven|Custom Field Driven]])
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | '''IMPORTANT''': because the underlying workflow is [[Status]] driven, if the status of the Level 1 record is changed, and then changed back to the [[Status]] that drives the '''Create New Activity''' workflow, the workflow will be triggered a second time, and a new set of Level 2 records will be created as per the Workflow.

− | *'''Custom Field ID''': Used for [[#Custom Field Driven|Custom Field Driven]] as explained below.<br>
| |

| |
− | The '''Create New Activity''' workflow can be driven by custom fields. For example, you could have check boxes at Level 1 corresponding to various Level 2 Types. Selecting each check box could create and attach the relevant Level 2 activity type.
