1.1.2 Actions, event monitors, and action flows

Items responsible for what the job performs include actions, event monitors, and action flows. When you execute a single command, you call an action from a job. In contrast, when you execute multiple commands in combination with event monitoring, you call an action flow from a job. To monitor events, you specify an event monitor in an action flow. An action flow combines routine operations into one item. It can call actions, event monitors, and action flows.

You can specify the order in which items placed are executed by connecting them with each other using relation lines (arrows). An item can be set to run after multiple items finish, while multiple items can be set to run after one item finishes.
