@Archana
Whenever we use the UI to trigger a workflow use Runtime events.
Use Workflow Policy whenever it is necessary to detect a database event.

Hi,
I have a question.
What is the time point to trigger the workflow?
I mean before the opportunity save to DB or after.

Thanks

Hi,

Can we create a Run time even in our SAMPLE database and test it ?

Hi All,
In our application we can create Case from Case Home Page Screen [Virtual BC] after clicking “Add and Go” record will be display in Case Form Applet where we can enter Rest of the details.
Our Issue
There is one field “due date” where a work flow will calculate the due Date and populate the value there . the work flow is called by Run time event write record in HLS Case BC.But in our case the run time event is not getting triggered and the due date is not calculating for the records which are creating by this.
workaround
if we press ctrl + s it will call the workflow and due date is calculated.But user is checking for solution where he doent want to do this
solution we tried
–>we tried to put the same condition in runtime event change record of HLS case and it is working .But as it is on change record when ever there is change in certain field[where the change record expression depends] it is getting fired so mutiple times it is getting fired and it may leads to performance issue .
–> tired to refresh the view through script but still it is not working .
–>tried to do through a policy and it is working but once the policy got triggered and user tried to change the record at the same time where the workflow is also trying to update one record use will get error saying some other user is working on this record and it will make the record missing .so we can go with this .

could some one suggest how we can achieve this requirement .
thanks and regards
Joseph thomas

Can I control whether the Workflow invoked by the RTE is Synchronous or Asynchronous call. If yes, how?

Thanks.
