Overview

In noKodr, a Workflow functions as a process builder for your application, enabling you to design and implement business automation according to your specific needs.
Workflows allow you to construct complex automation sequences by connecting various actions in a specific order or in sequence.
There are different workflow actions specified in different categories such as Logic, Communication, Data, UI and others.

Workflow Actions

Workflow Actions are sub-grouped under the following categories:

Categories	Description	Reference

Categories	Description	Reference
Logic	This category includes actions that follow set of rules and steps.	Logic Actions
Communication	This category includes actions for seamless communication with both internal and external systems, enabling notify to users and integration. It ensures efficient interaction between Salesforce and other platforms.	Communication Actions
Data	This category offers actions to perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations on Salesforce objects. It enables efficient data management and manipulation within the system.	Data Actions

Workflow Creation Field	Description

Workflow Creation Field	Description
Label	A user-friendly name for the workflow, used for easy identification within the application.
Name	The unique identifier for the workflow, typically used in code action.
Type	Basically there are two types of workflows in noKodr: Business Workflows: Business Workflows include all actions mentioned above. Reference: Workflow Actions It is a sequence of automated steps designed to streamline and manage business processes efficiently. These workflows are triggered by specific events or actions in after context, allowing you to automate routine tasks and ensure consistent execution across your application. Reference: How to create a business workflow? Validation Workflows: Validation workflows include only Logic, Data (only Query Records action) and Communication actions. They basically work on output of earlier action in workflow as they are primarily used as sub-flows in business workflows. These workflows are triggered by specific events or actions in before context.
Error Message	It allows to provide error message comprehensible as per business need.

The Workflow Designer within the noKodr application empowers users to build and customize automated workflows with ease.
The Workflow Designer features a flexible canvas where you can visually design workflows by dragging and dropping actions, conditions, and events.
By configuring various parameters and linking actions, you can create powerful workflows that automate business processes directly within the UI.
These workflows enhance your application's functionality by streamlining operations and improving user interactions.
