Before you can use Action management, some setup is required:

  • Action management-related number sequences on the Action management parameters.
  • Queries for triggers of type Query. Use a query to find one or more records in the database. The found records are the input for further processing.

Note: You are advised to define a distinctive constant for each generated number sequence. For example, for the number sequence for: - Workflows: Wf - Category: Cat - Trigger: Trig - Transaction: Trans - Query: Q 9. Sub-task: Change number sequences. 10.
