Dynamics workflow

I have a workflow that automatically updates a contact to a specific owner that matches the linked Company owner when a contact record is created. What I want to do is to send an email when an owner changes AFTER a contact record is created. Any idea how I include this in a workflow?

    Hi yes but I only want the workflow to run AFTER the record has been created and after the first workflow runs as mentioned above. Any ideas?

    Yes, You need to run workflow on "Record assigned".  and you can send email to assigned user.

    Hi Priyesh - thanks only problem is the owner in most cases would equal the Account owner. Can you think of any way to include in the workflow for it to send the e-mail only once the Owner changes after creation?

    Hi AmandaB,

    You can write another workflow that triggers on the update of the Contact's Owner field, and put a check condition, i.e. if the Owner of the Contact does not equal the parent Account's Owner, send an email.

    Hope this works for you.
