For some steps in a data entry workflow template, post actions can be defined. A post action runs a menu item.

During or after workflow execution, you can view the run post actions and the run status.

When a post action is run, an error can occur. Usually, the error is related to configuration in D365 FO. When you have fixed the issue, you can rerun a failed post action.
