What is it?
As an admin user, you can automatically push leads and/or contacts which are created or updated in Bullhorn into Cadence, according to a set of rules that you choose. In other words, this feature allows a newly created contact or lead to get automatically imported into a specific cadence based on rules defined in Advanced Workflow.
Prerequisites for adding an Advanced Workflow:
- You are connected as a Super Admin/Admin in Cadence
- Bullhorn is connected
- Bullhorn fields are mapped
Getting started with Advanced Workflows
- Step 1: Go to the Settings page > General Settings > Scroll down to the Workflow Section.
- Step 2: Add Workflow - Now click on the Add Workflow button, then select Advanced Workflow from the dropdown.
- Step 3: Workflow Name - Give your workflow a name.
- Step 4: Choose the trigger from here - Choose among two different triggers. Besides each dropdown option of triggers, a label identifies to whom the field belongs.
When a lead is added to org.
If a field has a Lead label, it means it is a lead Bullhorn field. If a field has a User label, it means the field is related to the salesf user. For example, in the below picture: Referrer Account and Referrer Contact are Lead-related fields from Bullhorn, whereas User ID and Username are Bullhorn User-related fields.
When a contact is added to org.
This trigger has three different types of fields. If the dropdown option has a Contact label, it is a contact-related field. If it has an Account label, it is an account-related Bullhorn field. And If it has a User label, that field is related to Bullhorn User. For example, in the below picture: Contact role and Lead creation date are fields from the Bullhorn-contact page whereas User ID and Username options refer to Bullhorn-user-related fields. Similarly in the second image: Account ID and Account Name options are fields from the Bullhorn Account page.
When a Lead is Updated
When a Lead is updated in Bullhorn and the updates match the rules that you have defined in the workflow, then this lead will be imported automatically into the chosen Cadence.
When a Contact is updated

- Step 5: Adding Conditions - Here, you can make your set of rules/conditions and give a value to be checked. If the conditions are satisfied, it will perform the final action of the workflow. For example: In the below picture, the given condition is: If the Lead ID of that lead is’ werXXX12, then it will satisfy the workflow condition and move forward to perform the last action.
- Step 6: Select a Cadence - Select any Cadence from Personal, Company, where you wish the lead/contact to get added.
- Step 7: Add new rule - Select Add new rule button when you are done adding conditions. If all the conditions of the workflow are satisfied, then it will add the lead/contact to the selected cadence.
- Step 8: Once the new rule has been created, the advanced workflow is ready to use. By enabling or disabling the button on the right-hand side of the newly constructed advanced workflow, you may now activate and deactivate the specific advanced workflow.
- Case 1: Enabling the button: If this button is toggled on, the specified advanced workflow is active and will function.
- Case 2: Disabling the button: This advanced workflow is not active and will not function if this button is toggled off.
