  • In the workflow editor, click Set up triggers
  • In the left panel, select Based on a schedule
     

 

  • Set up your Based on a schedule workflow enrollment trigger. The configured dates and times will be based on your account's time zone settings.
    • How often should this workflow trigger: choose whether the workflow should only occur Once or Annually.
      • If you have an Operation Hub Professional or Enterprise subscription, you can schedule the workflow to recur Monthly, Weekly, or Daily. Learn more about setting up scheduled workflows
    • Date: select a date or date property for your workflow to execute.
      • To select a fixed date, click the date picker and select a date
      • To select a date property, click the date picker and select a property from the data panel. Then, select On date, Before date, or After date. Date properties can only be used with the Once or Annually trigger options. 
    • And [object-types] meet the following filter criteria: set filter criteria to define the records that you would like to enroll in the workflow. On each scheduled date and time, all records that meet this criteria will enroll and go through the workflow. 
      • If there is no filter criteria set, records will not automatically enroll in the workflow. Only manually enrolled records will be enrolled.
      • If a record is manually enrolled, it will not follow the set schedule and automatically enroll on subsequent scheduled dates, unless it meets the trigger criteria. Manually enrolled records will execute the workflow immediately.
  • When you're done, click Save.
