Summary
In this chapter, we understood what flows are made up of, various triggering mechanisms, and their entry/exit criteria, which will help you design and develop successful Salesforce flows that effectively confirm your business process flows and meet your business needs. For this, you need a deep understanding of your business process flow, and then, for each step of the flow, check for the following aspects:
- What are the flow building blocks can I use?
- How do I plan to trigger that business process step?
- What are your entry (input) and exit (output) criteria?
In the next chapter, we will explore and see the Order Of Execution (OOE) of how your system runs various tasks in the backend. OOE was critical in general for technical teams in the past, but now it is more important for every Salesforce team member to understand it as flows are declarative and low code and can be created by your admins or business analysts.
