Hello,
What is the difference between child workflow and real time workflow? can you please explain with examples in D365?
Thanks,
Howdy!
Real time workflows are basically actions that you can have the system run for you based on conditions that you set (time, updates to fields, etc.)
I think the documentation describes child workflows best:
"If you apply the same logic in different workflows or in conditional branches, define that logic as a child workflow so you don’t have to replicate that logic manually in each workflow or conditional branch. This helps make your workflows easier to maintain. Instead of examining many workflows that may apply the same logic, you can just update one workflow."
So, lets say that there are several points in either one workflow or in different workflows where you need calculate someone's age to the day. That is where a child workflow comes into play, you only have to write it once and all the other "parent" flows can use it.
Think of it like a function in the computer language of your choice.
