<p>This module allows to automate several process according to some rules.</p>
<p>This is useful for creating automated actions on your database like:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Send a welcome email to all new partners (or filtered according to
some rules)</li>
<li>Remember to online customers that they forgot their basket with some
items</li>
<li>Send documents to sign to all new employees</li>

<p>Steps can trigger one of the following options:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><tt class="docutils literal">Mail</tt>: Sends an email using a template.</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">Server Action</tt>: Executes a server action.</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">Activity</tt>: Creates an activity to the related record.</li>
</ul>
<p>All the steps need to specify the moment of execution. We will set the
number of hours/days and a trigger type:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><tt class="docutils literal">Start of workflow</tt>: It will be executed at the
previously-configured time after we create the record.</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">Execution of another step</tt>: It will be executed at the
previously-configured time after the previous step is finished
properly.</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">Mail opened</tt>: It will be executed at the previously-configured time
after the mail from the previous step is opened.</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">Mail not opened</tt>: It will be executed at the previously-configured
time after the mail from the previous step is sent if it is not opened
before this time.</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">Mail replied</tt>: It will be executed at the previously-configured
time after the mail from the previous step is replied.</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">Mail not replied</tt>: It will be executed at the previously-configured
time after the mail from the previous step is opened if it has not
been replied.</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">Mail clicked</tt>: It will be executed at the previously-configured
time after the links of the mail from the previous step are clicked.</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">Mail not clicked</tt>: It will be executed at the previously-configured
time after the mail from the previous step is opened and no links are
clicked.</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">Mail bounced</tt>: It will be executed at the previously-configured
time after the mail from the previous step is bounced back for any
reason.</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">Activity has been finished</tt>: It will be executed at the
previously-configured time after the activity from the previous action
is done.</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">Activity has not been finished</tt>: It will be executed at the
previously-configured time after the previous action is executed if
the related activity is not done.</li>
</ul>
<p>Important to remember to define a proper template when sending the
email. It will the template without using a notification template. Also,
it is important to define correctly the text partner or email to field
on the template</p>

<div class="section" id="records-creation">

<p>Records are created using a cron action. This action is executed every 6

<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#toc-entry-5">Step execution</a></h3>
<p>Steps are executed using a cron action. This action is executed every
hour by default. On the record view, you can execute manually an action.</p>
<p>There is a way to enforce step execution when finalize the previous one.
If we set a negative value on the period, the execution will be
immediate without a cron.</p>
