This will be a very complex PR.
There are two types of flows:
hiring date,if a project changes.This PR covers the first use case: date based flows.
How does this work?
A flow is about either a date, or an event that happens in the account.
Let's take the example of the hiring date.
So we define a flow about the hiring date. This means: when the hiring date happens, do "something".
When we define a flow about a date, we have two options:
Flows are made of steps. Each step can have one or more actions. Actions are things like send an email, create a task, lend an asset,...
"Date based" flows can have steps that can be executed before, during or after the event occurs, like "3 weeks before, do this", or "2 days after, do this".
Flows are always associated with a trigger type, like
Flow::TRIGGER_HIRING_DATE, that defines which criteria will trigger the flow.When should flows run
A flow will run in two cases:
How does OfficeLife deal with flows
When a flow runs, it:
three weeks before, for instance).ProcessAllScheduledActions, that is executed every hour, which will check if we should process a scheduled action in the current hour.And that's it.
