Specify step assignments

For a General step, Launch step, or submap Start step, you can assign values to any data field, attachment, or workflow group, or you can define an expression using system functions.

To assign an expression at a step

  1. On the workflow map, select the step where the assignment will occur.
  2. In the Step Properties, click the Assignments tab.
  3. Specify where you want to make the assignment:
    • Choose Before Execution to make the assignment before the step executes.
    • Choose After Completion to make the assignment after the step is completed.
