The Search and Run Action Set action allows you to search for Records and run an Action on each one

This can be useful for fixing errors or mass updates of data as well as other maintenance tasks


Options


Search


    • Search In - This field allows you to select the Record Type to search in. This is handy to limit your search to only that Record Type. If you want to make your configuration more portable consider selecting "Skip Record Type Check" here and specify the RecordType variable directly in the "Search For" fields.


    • By Values - You can specify all the fields necessary to perform your search. This can include ranges on dates and numbers as well. It is common to use this to search for the proper person(s) to approve a given item (i.e. an Invoice or New Hire). Search the approval matrix (Record Type that holds your approver data). Alternatively you can just specify a Record ID if you already know it. 


    • Security - If you turn this ON then the search will not be limited by the current User's security to find Records.


Advanced Search


    • By Record ID - If you want to find a specific Record by ID, enter it here.


    • By Record IDs - You can search for multiple Records by their ID by specifying a list of IDs separated by ; (semi-colon).


    • Has Documents - You can further refine your search by specifying the Record(s) to find must have Documents, No Documents or Either.


Action Set


    • Run Action Set - The Action Set to run against all the found Records.


    • Defer Actions - Turn this ON to have the actions run in a deferred mode



The Search For fields can all contain static values or variables.
