The Action Sequence is an XML document that defines the smallest complete task that the solution engine can perform.  It is executed by a very lightweight process flow engine and defines the order of execution of one or more the components of the Pentaho BI Platform.  We avoid calling this a process flow because it is missing many of the capabilities of a true process flow engine.  It is good for sequencing small, linear, success oriented tasks like reporting and bursting.  It has the ability to loop through a result set, call another Action Sequence and conditionally execute components.  The Action Sequence document should have a ".xaction" suffix.
