Custom Workflow

Overview

Workflow rules can be created to help automate field updates, email alerts, and follow-up tasks. Nonprofits would typically use workflow for cases like automatically creating a follow-up task whenever a donation is submitted, or automatically updating a major gift donation status to ASK.

The nonprofit template has some workflow rules already created which are outlined below. System Administrators can also create other workflow rules to help automate their application further.
