Triggers control the execution of actions.  Triggers may be owned by entities, collectiions, or action.

 

 

Each trigger definition is comprised of three main parts:

 

 -        Conditional statement that determines if the trigger will be run  (the default value is true)

 -        Scheduled time:   Start of Period, End of Period, Not Scheduled

 -        Action name

 

Trigger definition also include a sequence number that can be used to control the sequence in which triggers are executed.

 

Triggers that are defined in actions are evaluated each time the action is executed.  During a process list action, the trigger(s) are evaluated for each selected entity.
