Create Connection Request When A Date Field Person Attribute Is Populated

Question

Originally posted by Unknown

There are a few specific person attributes of the Date field type. A connection request needs to be created when one of the dates is filled in. What is the best way to do this?
Currently my solution is to have a post-save workflow trigger for the person entity. The workflow will first check those specific attributes on the person and check that the attribute value has an actual value and the modified datetime just happened, then go from there.
Is there a better solution for this situation?

You should create a workflow trigger on the "Attribute Value" entity type and restrict the trigger to the specific attribute by specifying "AttributeId" under "Entity Type Qualifier Column" and then specifying the specific attribute id under the "Or value is" section.
