About the Execute Workflow Action
Use the Execute Workflow action to run a workflow on demand. Executing this action is equivalent to clicking Re-run Workflow from the View workflow definition and instance dialog box in the Action Menu. See About Workflows for more information about workflows.
The Workflow action does not work when executed from the form view of a Business Object unless the Automatically save changes when action is run in UI form context check box is selected while creating the workflow.
