HR flows help automate task and case creation.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin

## About this task

There are three HR flows installed with the Human Resources: Core application.

* New Hire on Boarding Case Trigger HR Profile
* New Hire on Boarding Case Trigger Job
* Case Trigger Custom Condition

Activation is immediate. These flows create an HR case adding an entry in the HR Lifecycle Events Case \[sn_hr_le_case\] table. If multiple flows are active at the same time, there is a high probability of creating duplicate records and cases.  
Note:  
Only one of these flows should be active at any given time for a particular lifecycle event.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllProcess AutomationFlow Designer.
2. Open the flow you want to activate.
3. Click the Activate button.
