Manual workflow quick filters

When building the manual workflow runner, introduced in AutomateWoo 5.0, scaling was a key consideration. We developed a new system for our existing workflow rules to make it possible to convert a set of rules into a database query. By using a database query we can find all the items that match a set of rules quickly and in a more scalable way. 

The system is called quick-filtering and any rule that has the ability to be converted to a database query argument is considered to be “quick-filterable”.

When creating a manual workflow you’re free to use any rules, quick-filterable or otherwise. However, using quick-filterable rules greatly decreases the time required to find the matching items for the workflow.
