Imagine the efficiency if workflows could be set with an automatic trigger tied to other things in AE, such as opportunities, insurance, or assets.

For example, I add an Opportunity to a record and set the status as Open. I have an automatic workflow tied to this Opportunity status that creates follow-up tasks, emails, you name it. Then - success! - I have won my opportunity. I set my Won/Lost status to Won. This triggers a separate automatic workflow. 

Understandably, this "automation" should require a final "thumbs up" from the user after the status is set to ensure it should be added. 

If this feature was implemented, our office's efficiency in using AE would skyrocket & would eliminate a lot of the manual workflow triggering that we have to do.
