# How to Configure a Scenario Step

A scenario step defines where the next envelope goes and how its data is prepared.

It can route the envelope to a destination template, transform data with an XSLT conversion rule, and run only when a condition is met.

### Configure the first step

1. In **Step name**, enter a name.
2. In **Destination template UUID**, paste the UUID of the target template for the next envelope.
3. In **XSLT conversion rule**, paste the rule that maps data from the source envelope to the destination envelope.
4. Enable **Send an envelope immediately after starting a step** if the next envelope must be sent automatically.
5. Click the **Save** <img src="/files/Cc9wRxz4yr2WrK09Ynjl" alt="" data-size="line"> icon in the upper-right corner of the step.

{% hint style="info" %}
After you enter **Destination template UUID**, the system will auto-fill the latest template version UUID.
{% endhint %}

After you save the first step, you can add another step or save the scenario.

### Add and configure the next step

1. Next to **Scenario steps**, click the <img src="/files/elWCthXICFctKB1GgY5H" alt="" data-size="line"> button.
2. Fill in **Source template UUID** and **Source template version UUID** so they match the destination of the previous step.
3. Configure the destination template and conversion rule like in the first step.
4. Enable **Condition** if this step must run only in specific cases.
5. Save the step.

### Configure optional conditions

Conditions are optional. Use them when the step must run only for specific source data.

See [Scenario Step Conditions](/user/scenarios/condition-types/scenario-step-conditions.md) for condition logic and supported condition types.

### Before you save

* make sure the destination template UUID is set
* check that the destination template version is correct
* add the XSLT conversion rule
* configure a condition if the step must run only in specific cases
