[Vtigercrm-developers] Triggering workflow on submission of a webform

[Petar Dimov]

Mark,

Please look at your cron task and verify that those are running ok. I have
many 5.4 instances and they all rely on email notifications upon lead
creation.

It does work.

Test it out by creating a workflow that sends email on first save with no
condition in it.
