Automation - Setup Triggers

Modified on Mon, 26 Aug, 2024 at 3:53 PM

An essential functionality of Vault is its automation, where there is the ability to automate certain processes in the system. You can set up triggers to make sure that certain tasks, which are in accordance with your office policies, can be taken care of automatically by Vault. These triggers can be set up on both an office or individual agent/user level.

To set up Office Triggers, you will need to have system admin access. More information can be found in the User Management Settings knowledge article.

Step by step

1. Go into Settings/My Settings > Automation > Triggers

3. This will then open the Add/Edit Trigger Screen, where you can start building your desired trigger

4. Here you can select the Type (Event or Date based), which will determine the corresponding setting fields

5. Once selected, you are then able to set the desired event trigger, the action, and any further specific settings required based on the trigger selected

6. You are then able to tick/untick the Live: tickbox to enable/disable the trigger and then click Save 

TIP: To further automate your processes, try pairing triggers together either simultaneously or in tandem.

Within My Triggers, we can filter by users that you have PA access to. We also provide the ability to setup a trigger on behalf of a user you have PA access to when selecting the Scope of the trigger.
