;[Action|EVENT_CODE]:Action is a user-defined code that uniquely identifies the workflow action item. Action is tied to the database column Event_Code which is a 16 character alphanumeric mandatory field that must be manually entered. It is through the event code that the workflow action is referenced in a workflow UserCalc.

;[Process by RMWF with like Actions|EVENT_BATCHED]: If this toggle is checked, the workflow action event is batched and will only be sent when the [RMWF] process is run.

This allows users to run the process at a specific time. The workflow action items are sent only once after this process is run. This toggle is used only with Emails or Reports types.\\

To use a completion clause, users only have the ID for the record that triggered the log to be written. This ID MUST be used in the clause. Example: A completion clause for WF_RAP would need to use ":RAP_ID" in the completion clause.
To use a completion clause you only have one piece of information from the workflow log available to use and it MUST be used in the clause. That piece of information is the ID for the record that triggered the log to be written. For example, a completion clause for WF_RAP would need to use ":RAP_ID" in the completion clause.

Users cannot specify "*" as the value in the select, as in SELECT * FROM. The value selected is arbitrary and not used for anything so it can be a column or a constant value BUT can only be a single value. Example:
Due to changes in the Oracle9i Database, you can no longer specify "*" as the value in the select as in SELECT * FROM …. The value selected is arbitrary and not used for anything so it can be a column or a constant value BUT can only be a single value. For example:

An important note to remember is that every time a workflow action event takes place, a log is created. Therefore, reviewing the 'Logs' tab will indicate how many times the action event was fired. It is also a good place to review for testing purposes to ensure that the workflow action actually took place. \\ \\

;[User Calc|USER_CALC_CODE]: This field defines the user calc that the workflow is listed in
;[Description|DESCRIPTION]: This field is a more descriptive text that describes the user calc.
;[Status|USER_CALC_STATUS]: This field identifies the status of the user calc. Values are:
* 00: Under Construction – the user calc has not been completed and therefore will not be published
* 10: Pre-compiled
* 20: Being Tested
* 30: To Be Published – The user calc is ready to be published
* 40: In Production – The user calc has been published and is in use
* 99: Compiling
;[User|USER_NAME]: This is the name of the user who currently owns the user calc.
;[Usage|USER_CALC_USAGE]: This field defines how the user calc is to be used in the application. Values are:
* 00: Not Specified
* 01: Disbursement Message – The user calc will be executed for each disbursement record when [UPDISB] is run.
* 02: Secondary WF - This selection is used for workflow user calcs which will not be fired from the trigger directly and must be called from another user calc.
* 03: Pro-Active WF – The user calc will be executed when [UMPWF] is run.
;[Line|USER_CALC_LINE]: This defines the line in user calc that the workflow is referenced in.

!!Attachments
The 'Attachments' tab is used to maintain the names of the files (attachments) that are linked to the workflow. The attachments can be entered with a Start and End date, which will allow the files to be picked up only during this timeframe.
Multiple attachments can be sent on a single workflow email. Note that some email servers will limit file sizes and may limit the total amount that can be sent out.
The Length and Mime Type columns can be left blank when the file is attached to the table. These two fields will be filled in by the application as needed.
With the addition of the new tab contents for an attachment, the use in a workflow email does not change. The workflow is built in the same manner as normal, the Description on the Act line is still the body of the email.
;[Seq|SEQUENCE]: This field defines the order in which the attachments are processed.
;[Description|DESCRIPTION]: This field is a more descriptive text that describes the attachment file.
;[Start Date|START_DATE]: This field defines the start date of when the attachment file will be available for the workflow.
;[End Date|END_DATE]: This field defines the end date for when the attachment file will no longer be available of the workflow.
;[Attached|ATTACHMENT]: This field holds the name of the file that is to be attached to the workflow. The file can be added or removed from this field as needed.
;[Length|LENGTH]: This field identifies the size of the attached file.
;[Mime Type|MIME_TYPE]: This field is used to identify the data type of the attached file. Example: The mime type can be a docx, txt, pdf, jpg, etc.
