A system, method, and apparatus for implementing workflows across multiple differing systems and devices is provided herein. During operation a workflow for a first camera is automatically suggested, or a new workflow generated for the first camera, based upon a workflow being created for a second camera having a similar field of view as the first camera. In particular, a workstation (or server) will receive an indication that a workflow was created for a camera. The workstation (or server) then determines if any other cameras have similar field of views. New workflows will then be suggested (or implemented) for the cameras having similar field of views. The suggested/implemented workflows will have a similar trigger and a similar action.
