Workflow and Document Event Categories
Workflow and document triggers fall into three categories of events:
Rule based events run because of an action made by a user. The following are some of the ways you can use rule-based change triggers:
When an item changes to a specified state, iterate over the change packages and then resync them into the reference tree.
When an item is updated, change a field in a related item.
If an item is in an open state and all of the reverse related items (items pointing to it) are in a final state, move the item into a final state as well.
For more information on rule based triggers, see “Creating Rule Based Change Triggers”.
Scheduled events run in isolation and do not require an action by a user. The following are some of the ways you can use scheduled triggers:
If the item is in a state and unchanged for a specified length of time, send e-mails to assigned users and relevant managers.
If the priority is at the maximum level, send an e-mail to the manager.
If a critical item has been in a beginning state for a number of days, send an e-mail to the project manager.
For more information on scheduled event triggers, see “Creating Scheduled Triggers”.
Other events run when:
time entry is changed by a user, for example, when a time entry is changed on an item, update the payroll system
item tree is copied
item is branched
item is labeled
test result is created, modified, or deleted
