Variable<br />

Stop Workflow<br />

Allows you to specify in days, hours, and minutes the amount of time<br />

you want to pause the execution of the workflow. These time values<br />

can also be lookup values that are retrieved from a data source such<br />

as another list on the same SharePoint site or from a previously created<br />

workflow variable.<br />

Allows you to pause the execution of the workflow and specify the<br />

date when the workflow needs to be continued. This date can also be<br />

a lookup value that is retrieved from a data source such as another<br />

list on the same SharePoint site or from a previously created workflow<br />

variable.<br />

Allows you to create an e-mail message containing string values, lookup<br />

values, formulas, and workflow variables. The action also allows<br />

you to specify the To, CC, and Subject fields of the e-mail message.<br />

Allows you to copy, move, or move and leave a link referring to a<br />

document in a record repository.<br />

Allows you to set a specific time in hours and minutes and add this to<br />

a date. This date can also be a lookup value that is retrieved from a<br />

data source such as another list on the same SharePoint site or from a<br />

previously created workflow variable. The output of this action can be<br />

saved to a new or existing workflow variable.<br />

Allows you to set a custom workflow status to a value other than In<br />

Progress or Complete. The addition of this action might seem like only<br />

a minor enhancement of the workflow framework, but this action is<br />

extremely valuable because your customers probably don't think in<br />

terms of In Progress and Complete, and you will find that you use this<br />

action many times when you create workflows.<br />

Allows you to set the value of a new or existing workflow variable. This<br />

value can also be a lookup value that is retrieved from a data source<br />

such as another list on the same SharePoint site or from a previously<br />

created workflow variable.<br />

Allows you to stop the workflow. Also allows you to write a string<br />

value to the workflow history list that is retrieved from a data source<br />

such as another list on the same SharePoint site or from a previously<br />

created workflow variable.<br />
