I'm trying to combine two workflows which only function to add a log entry. It's easy to set a condition that occurs either on add or update.
How can you tell within the workflow if an add occurred or an update occurred?
Would the ID field be blank?
How do you know if an item has been added or updated?

have a look here for similar question How to check whether the workflow is triggered on New Item or Edit Item?
+9Thanks but I'm dealing with a document library--he basically answers the question for a listitem.
I'm not aware of a difference between list and docu library in this regard.
if I take Collin's (correct) answer, you can just the same way create a flag/status column in docu library and apply the same solution.
I would say, my suggestion from that thread, of having the main workflow with all the business logic being stared from two other workflows, one triggered at new document library entry and the other on document entry update, is applicable too.
or do you see any specific problems with applying one of these approaches?
