Questions about this workflow
Does this trigger cover both new and changed accounts?
Yes. It triggers when an Account is created or updated.
Can it compare account changes to earlier values?
The trigger uses a LastModifiedDate high-watermark to capture creations and updates. A prior-value comparison should only be requested if that baseline is available to Notis.
