what is the difference between criteria and condition in Salesforce?
I am trying to understand the basic difference between criteria and conditions during the different processes that are built on Salesforce.

Hi Yogesh,
Criteria: Initial entry point which defines the start of the action to be taken. For e.g: When an Account record is created/updated... do something
Condition: Specifics about the defined criteria which makes the action execution on very specific terms For e.g: When Shipping Zip Code on an Account is updated.. do something
Criteria and condition are used interchangeably. I believe as of Winter '18, (almost) all of the UI reads "criteria", but if you happen to see "condition", it's the same thing. The criteria or condition of a rule is the data that must be true before the rule will be carried out.
Thanks
