Action List

Executes a sequence of Data Actions.

Remarks

ActionList is a Data Action that allows you to compose and execute multiple actions in a defined order.

---

Overview

• Use ActionList to group several Data Actions together as a single step in a Data Rule.
• Each action in the list is executed in sequence, allowing for complex, multi-step data processing.
• Actions can include calculations, validations, lookups, assignments, and more.

---

Usage Scenarios

• Chained operations:
  Normalize a value, then validate it, then copy it to another field.
• Conditional logic:
  Combine multiple actions that should always run together when a rule triggers.
• Reusable logic:
  Encapsulate a common sequence of actions for reuse in multiple rules.
