            Abstract : 
In a virtual office environment, it is difficult for users to know the state of other users. As mechanisms to solve such difficulties, the trigger mechanisms for groupwork environment are discussed. These mechanisms detect occurrence of events in the system and invoke the corresponding predefined processes, where both the events and the processes can include users´ actions. Specification of events, condition and actions for groupwork is discussed together with examples
