If a workflow is scheduled, what does the trigger point on the actions determines? Can they be triggered without the schedule?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
In NetSuite, when a workflow is scheduled, the trigger point on the actions determines when the action will be executed. If the trigger is set to 'on entry', the action will be executed as soon as the workflow is initiated. However, it's important to note that the workflow actions are not necessarily synchronous with the scheduled script. If a scheduled script triggers a workflow action, the scheduled script may not wait for the results of the workflow before continuing. If something goes wrong in the workflow, it may not be caught in the scheduled script context. As for your second question, yes, workflow actions can be triggered without a schedule. This can be done through event-based triggers or user event scripts. However, the specific method would depend on the requirements of the workflow. Remember, when setting up a scheduled workflow, ensure that the delay field is not left blank. This field determines the delay before the action is executed. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
