3. Workflow Management

3.1. Create Workflow

You can use Atom8 to automate your day-to-day tasks, such as:

Get notification when inventory is low
Hide out-of-stock product from the online store and republish it when it is back to stock
Send one time discount to new customer
Add a customer to a group based on their total spending or lifetime duration
Get notification about high-risk order and change the order status to Manual Verification Required for review.

To automate these tasks, you create workflows by choosing workflow triggers, conditions, and actions:

Triggers are events that run in your e-Commerce store, such as an order being placed, a customer being added, or a product being created
Conditions make sure that your workflow runs actions only when certain conditions are met
Actions are tasks that will be performed once all conditions are satisfied.

Noted: To quickly create a workflow, you can duplicate the current workflow by clicking on the Duplicate icon, and edit the duplicated one to fit your expectation. The duplicated workflow can be distinguished with the original one by having “copy” at the end of its name.

Below is an example you can use to automatically get notification about low-stock products:

1. Open Atom8 Application
2. Under the Workflows tab, click on “Add” button to open Create Workflow page
3. Select trigger “Product Inventory changed”
4. Add the following condition: If “Product has low stock” is true
5. Select action “Send email”. Then, input Recipient, Email Subject, and Email Body. You can also add dynamic variables to your email body
6. Click on Save button and specify the Workflow Title to save your workflow.

You can edit workflow by simply clicking on the Edit icon on the Workflows page. You can make changes to the conditions and actions of the workflow to your liking. Once done, please make sure to save the workflow to keep the adjustments.

You can temporarily pause the workflow for future use by changing workflow status to Inactive. Once a workflow is deactivated, it is still saved within the app but won’t be functioning. To activate the workflow again, simply change its status back to Active.
