Shouldn't actions on a slice automatically run

[llheath]

I have several actions on a slice. I have conditions built into each action. For instance under the behavior for Purchasing Approval I have :
And([Purchasing Approval]="Approve",[Status]="Waiting for Purchasing Approval")

So my set columns should only work if the 2 conditions are met. 

I tested the actions by manually running it with a "display inline) This is working fine if I display an icon and manually run the actions.

I thought that when you save a record it would run all the actions on the slice. Or now do I have to create a bot for each action?

No. The actions associated to a slice appear in views based on that slice--they don't run automatically any more than they do on the underlying table itself.

There are multiple ways to systematically initiate an action, including, as you mention, automation. Another technique is to designate an action as a view event, such as form saved.
