Selecting a workflow

The workflow section is only visible on item types that have been enabled to use a workflow. Only content items are enabled by default.

1. To select a workflow, click Select Workflow.

   1. Select a workflow and then click OK.
2. Enter dates and times to execute any date or time specific workflow actions.

   1. Click to select a date.
   2. Click to select a time.

   Date type:	Details:
   Publish Date	Select the date and time to execute a publish action in a workflow stage.
   Expiry Date	Select the date and time to execute an expire action in a workflow.
   General dates	These dates are executed when using custom actions to perform scheduled tasks not based on published or expired dates.

   Note: Selecting a publish or expire date will not cause the item to be published or expired. The selected workflow must include a publish or expire action for this to happen. The publish and expire dates and times do not represent the time the content is published or expired. They represent the time the publish or expire action can be executed which may occur before the content is moved to either the published or expired stage of the workflow cycle.

   If no date or time is selected then it will default to the date the content was created which allows the publish and expire actions to be executed immediately when the content is moved to the published or expired stage of the workflow cycle.

   The date and time selected here are based on the timezone of the server you are accessing, not the timezone of the computer you are using.
