Viewing Existing Workflows

Use the Workflows list page to view existing workflows. By default, the list page shows all workflows except workflows marked as inactive. To view inactive workflows, check the Show Inactives box.

To access a workflow on the Workflows page, you must have the full permission level assigned for the base record on which the workflow was built. Further, you must have the feature related to the base record enabled in your account.
