Ever Wondered how Santa's Christmas Workflow Works?
Well, we have the answer: Santa used FireStart to create a process model and automate his Christmas workflow.
The whole december, we show you daily tutorials to create a process and configure a workflow in FireStart. On christmas day, you will see the finished end-to-end process in action.
Stay tuned and follow our videos!

Today, we create a loop to help Santa’s elves with the production of the presents.

Today Santa continues configuring the loop that he created yesterday. In it, a condition checks if an item is in stock or has to be reproduced.

The elves reproduced every item that was out of stock. Today, the items are set to ‘in stock’ by assigning a value to a variable.
