What is Visual Workflow

 Flows are visual representations of a series of events

•  They can contain complex logic: multiple decisions (if / then), branching, and looping

•  You can have users work with data / objects

•  You can do more than creating tasks, field updates, and send emails – you can also create, update, and delete multiple records – and embed a flow within a flow

 When creating a Flow, there are a number of things to consider when you’re getting started

•  What objects do I want to access?

•  What are the fields I want to access?

•  If creating a new record, what record types do I want to use, who should the owner be, and what are the required fields for creating a new record?

•  Build a flow chart of what you want to do
