Associate Workflow to Scheduler Event

Overview

In business environment, based on a schedule, users might require triggering workflow daily at a particular time or particular day or particular month or last day of the month to launch a certain task to perform repeatedly. This can be achieved by associating Scheduler event provided by AVEVA Work Tasks in the Association page.

Example: A business process involved in the leave balance update. Assume that, this process update happens periodically on 25th of every month at 10 AM. This can be scheduled using the schedule workflow setup.
