Using Workflow rules to create task with a custom record layout

Hello,

I am struggling in my attempt to create a task with a custom record layout automatically based on workflow rules.  I know I can do this with apex code but I am trying to avoid that level of complexity right now.  It is quite easy to automatically create a task with the General Record Layout.  Is it possible to auto create the task with a custom record layout?

Thanks in advance

Hi,
I'm having the same problem. Did you ever find a solution? I created a custom object, and want to create a task through workflow associated with it. The only options I have for workflow type are email alert, field upate, and new outbound message. Is there a way to create a task through workflow?

Hi, I just figured out the answer to my problem. I needed to allow activitities in the properties of the custom object. I'm not sure if this was the same problem as the original post, but hopefully it can help people who struggle with this in the future.
