Summary


In this chapter, we learned about the task table, extending the task table, and workflows. We created a new task-extending table called War Room Task, and we learned how to generate and interact with records and sub-tasks. We also learned how to control and branch the flow of a workflow, as well as how to use various other workflow activity types.
