(Rule-Obj-FlowAction)
Ø Flow
Action allows a user to act on (take an action) an Assignment to update the Case &
is created as an instance of Rule-Obj-FlowAction
Ø The arrows coming out of the Assignment shape

Activity rules are run each at both Pre & Post - processing of Flow Action
·
Validation tab:
à Validates the data during FA submission, before above Post
actions performed
à Update Status upon successful validation
·
Security tab
à To restrict a flow action to appear (to hide) only to certain users, based on access roles (Privilege rule) and based on When condition as well
