Evaluation, based on run/skip criteria specified for this task via the Workflow Task Details, of whether this task will run or skip when the Workflow is run.

Tasks, including Workflows, launched directly by the trigger will always have a run/skip evaluation of Run. Likewise, tasks within a launched Workflow that do not have any run or skip defined will always have a run/skip evaluation of Run.

• Run
  • A variable condition is not specified, and the forecasted task is scheduled to run based on the criteria.
• Run*
  • A variable condition is specified, and the forecasted task is tentatively scheduled to run based on the variable data available at the time of the forecast but is subject to change at run time.

• Skip
  • A variable condition is not specified, and the forecasted task is scheduled to skip based on the criteria.

• Skip*
  • A variable condition is specified, and the forecasted task is tentatively scheduled to skip based on the variable data available at the time of the forecast but is subject to change at run time.

• Not Evaluated
  • A variable condition is specified, however, an unresolved variable and/or function was detected during the evaluation.

Tasks, including Workflows, launched directly by the trigger will always have a run/skip evaluation of Run. Likewise, tasks within a launched Workflow that do not have any run or skip defined will always have a run/skip evaluation of Run.
