Calculating the start dates for the first task

What happens when you launch a workflow for any action set? The start date and time for the first task is always the current date and time on the application server machine.

This does not necessarily mean that the actual work begins on that date. For example, if the standard workday has already ended, then the actual work begins on the “next” workday. The “next” workday is defined according to the shop calendar.

Scenario	Start Date for the Task	Day the Actual Work Begins
Launch after workday ends	10/14/2015	10/15/2015
Launch before workday ends	10/14/2015	10/14/2015
