Review
In this step, you tested your updated workflow; setting a reply date column and sending an email if the decision is to ignore the greeting. As you build more applications, you will find making changes is quite common. The key point is to make sure you redeploy your workflows so that the server always has the latest version. In the next step, you learn how to clean your environment by deleting artifacts that are no longer needed.
