Workflow Settings In EasyDesk

Workflow Settings in Easy Desk help automate internal actions and notifications based on specific events inside your helpdesk. Well-defined workflows reduce manual work, improve response consistency, and ensure the right people receive the right updates at the right time.
Access Workflow Settings
Workflow settings are available under Settings → Workflow, where all system and custom workflows appear in a single list view.
This section provides visibility into active rules, execution status, and recent usage.
Workflow List Overview
The workflow list displays all existing automation rules created by the system or users.
Each workflow card shows:
Rule name
Trigger event
Action summary
Status toggle
Last updated date
Weekly usage count
This view helps teams audit automation behavior quickly.
Create A New Workflow
Click New Workflow to build a custom automation rule from scratch.
Each workflow follows a simple logic structure:
Event → Conditions → Actions
This structure ensures predictable and scalable automation.
Define Rule Name
Rule Name identifies the workflow internally for easy management.
Use clear and descriptive names to avoid confusion when multiple workflows exist.
Select Event
Event defines when the workflow triggers.
Common examples include:
New note added
New user joined
Conversation assigned
Group manager access granted
Events act as the starting point for all automation logic.
Enable Or Disable Conditions
Condition toggle controls whether filtering rules apply before actions run.
Disable conditions to trigger actions for every matching event without filtering.
Configure Conditions
Conditions determine which conversations qualify for the workflow.
Options include:
Match ANY condition
Match ALL conditions
Conditions allow precision targeting based on conversation properties.
Add Multiple Conditions
Use Add New Condition to include additional rules.
Multiple conditions improve accuracy and prevent unnecessary automation execution.
Add Filters
Filters further refine workflow execution by narrowing the conversation scope.
Filters help prevent automation conflicts across complex workflows.
Define Workflow Actions
Actions define what happens after conditions match.
Common actions include:
Send email to assigned agent
Send email to assigned group
Notify owner or group manager
Notify mentioned or follower users
Actions execute sequentially for reliable outcomes.
Add Multiple Actions
Use Add New Action to chain several actions within one workflow.
Multiple actions reduce the need for duplicate workflows.
Save Workflow
Click Save to activate the workflow.
Saved workflows appear immediately in the workflow list.
Enable Or Disable Workflow
Use the toggle switch to enable or disable a workflow without deleting it.
Disable workflows temporarily during testing or maintenance periods.
Edit Existing Workflow
Click on the three-dot menu and select Edit to modify an existing workflow.
Editing preserves rule history while allowing logic updates.
Duplicate Workflow
Duplicate creates a copy of an existing workflow.
This option speeds up workflow creation for similar automation needs.
Delete Workflow
Delete removes the workflow permanently.
Use this option carefully, as deleted workflows cannot be restored.
Reorder Workflows
Use Reorder to adjust execution priority.
Higher workflows run before lower ones when multiple rules match the same event.
Search Workflow
Use the search bar to locate workflows by name.
Search simplifies management in environments with many automation rules.
Workflow Best Practices
Clear workflow design improves reliability and system performance.
Recommended practices include:
Use specific conditions
Avoid overlapping workflows
Review usage data regularly
Disable unused rules
Workflow automation keeps EasyDesk efficient, predictable, and scalable. Regular workflow reviews ensure automation stays aligned with team processes and operational goals.
