Content Manager 25.2 Content Manager

# Workflow Activity Start Conditions page

This page allows you to set functional rules for when the Activity is due to start.

The start conditions are based on the results of a previous Activity.

Creating new start conditions

1. Right-click and select New Start Condition to set up new rules for starting the Activity.

   The New Start Condition dialogue box appears.

   - Depends on the following Activity - select from the drop-down box
   - Having the following Result - the outcome of the previous Activity that will initiate the current Activity.

     If the conditions are met, the Activity will be ready to start.

   - This is an optional condition - select to set up multiple conditions.

     You must specify at least two conditions for this to work. The Activity will start if either one of the two conditions is met.

     If you do not select this option, the condition will be mandatory, which means it must be met before the Activity will start.

   NOTE: When the Activity already has another start condition, Content Manager prompts you whether to make both start conditions optional: There is an existing start condition applied to this Activity, would you like all Start Conditions to be set as optional conditions?

2. Click OK

Shortcut menu for existing start conditions

- Copy - copies the condition to the clipboard to paste it e.g. into a document

- Properties - to edit the start condition
