            Example
            Example

            Create a simplified flow with four elements after the Start element.

            A simplified Create Employee Record flow containing four elements after Start: Collect Employee Details, Get Contact From Email, Get User From Email, and Create Employee2 Record.
            1. Use the existing Collect Employee Details screen flow element to collect details about a faculty member. The details later populate the corresponding fields on their employee record. Modify the form to include at least these required fields: Employee Number, Email, Employee Status, and Status Start Date.
            2. Add a Get Records element that gets the contact ID from the email address that's associated with a faculty member's person account. Name the element Get Contact From Email, and add a filter condition where Email equals Collect Employee Details > Email > Value.
            3. Add a Get Records element that gets the user ID from the email address that's associated with a faculty member's person account. Name the element Get User From Email, and add a filter condition where Email equals Collect Employee Details > Email > Value.
            4. Use the existing Create Employee2 Record element to create an employee record. Set these required field values to populate the employee record.
              Field Value
              Contact ID Contact from Get Contact From Email > Contact ID
              Employee Number Collect Employee Details > Employee Number
              Employee Status Collect Employee Details > Employee Status
              Status Start Date Collect Employee Details > Status Start Date
              User ID User from Get User From Email > User ID
