How does workflow automation work?
A workflow consists of three parts:
A trigger
For example a new order, a refused delivery, an incoming invoice or a missed deadline.
Rules and decision points
What needs to happen, and under which conditions? Where fixed rules fall short, AI can make an estimate, for example of the urgency of a deviation.
Actions
A notification to the right person, an update in another system, a request to the carrier or a task for an AI agent.
