Hi,  
  
Currently the best way to do this is using Stages - you can use the [Stage Gate](http://wiki.finalbuilder.com/display/continua/Stages)&nbsp;to control whether to run a subsequent stage based on specified conditions. There are also stage skip and promote conditions which also be used to run stages conditionally.&nbsp;  
  
There is also a Build Completed trigger type which can run one configuration when another has finished, however the triggered build will not have access to build workspace of the triggering build.   
  
We also plan to add a feature in a future where one build configuration can be set to depend on the output of others.
