Work Flow: Workflow assigned to an account when it meets event conditions.
Delay: Time between the occurrence of the event's eligibility and its placement into the event queue (wait time between eligibility and queue placement).
Action: Determines what happens to an account triggered for this workflow that is processing currently in another workflow.
Priority: Determines how often Workflow Designer processes accounts that are eligible for the event in comparison to other events.
Reentrance: Determines what happens to an account that is already processing in the workflow that is triggering the event.
Execute concurrently: Account starts running through the workflow again, allowing multiple instances of the account within the workflow.
Restart work flow: Stops the account's current progression through the workflow and starts a new instance of the account at the beginning of the workflow.
Do not start work flow: Allows the account to continue processing in the currently running workflow; doesn't start a new instance of the account.
Resume paused work flow: Resumes a paused workflow for the existing instance of the account. The account continues through the workflow, but doesn't start a new instance of the account. If there are no instances, the account starts in the workflow.
