    When defining time dependent workflows in salesforce we have to use standard and custom date and date/time fields defined for the object.

    We have to specify time using days and hours.
    Also add actions to existing time triggers.

    Hi,

    The limitations of Time-dependent workflow in Salesforce:

    Time triggers don’t support minutes or seconds.
    Time triggers can’t reference the following:
    DATE or DATETIME fields containing automatically derived functions, such as TODAY or NOW.
    Formula fields that include related-object merge fields.
    You can’t add or remove time triggers if:
    The workflow rule is active.
    The workflow rule is deactivated but has pending actions in the queue.
    The workflow rule evaluation criteria is set to Evaluate the rule when a record is: created, and every time it’s edited.
    The workflow rule is included in a package.

    Thanks
