Understanding Schedules and Triggers

Schedules and Triggers are used to initiate workflows in two ways: conditional triggers and scheduled actions. 

When an event is retrieved by Resolve Actions, the list of triggers is scanned. If the event matches the criteria of a specific trigger, the workflow assigned to it is initiated.

In addition, workflows may be initiated periodically, according to specific time slot. For example: the workflow "Clean log file folder" can be set to run every Sunday at 2:00 AM.
