This page is for application designers. It explains how to set up a rule to determine whether or not an action will run an associated task plan.
Overview
When working with data, applications and IT systems, there are routine processes that you need to run. PhixFlow makes it easy for you to set up and manage these processes using task plans, to which you add tasks. For details of tasks and task plans, see:
- Using Tasks and Task Plans
- Task
- Training module 14 Creating Tasks and Task Plans
You can also use the Action property → Run Task Plan section to configure an application action to run a task plan. Use the task plan rule properties tab to define a rule (expression) that determines the conditions under which the action runs the task plan.
This properties tab is not available from the repository. It opens from the Action →Run Task Plan section → Task Plan Rules table.
