Limit the iterations.

[saikumarkak]

Hi Team,
I have created the flow designer on catalog item. it is working fine upon it. now when in the else part (S.No : 13) I have taken the "Go Back to" tool it was going back correctly. but i need to stop that go back to for certain limit means for only 3 times after 3rd time i won't go back it moves to the forward. how can i achieve this. i want set limit to that go back to tool.

Steps

-> create a flow variable of type Integer and initialize with 0

-> Just before using Go back use "Set Flow Variables" flow logic and increment it by 1 using script

-> After "Set Flow Variables" use IF flow logic and check the value of that flow variable

-> if reached to 3 then don't go to the Go back step, simply use "Exit Loop" or jump to other action

@saikumarkak 

another way

-> create flow variable of type Integer and store value as 0 in it using "Set Flow Variables" flow logic

-> then use Do the following 

a) your flow actions

b) use "Set Flow Variables" flow logic to increment the count by 1

-> Until count is 3

See this and enhance your flow so that it runs 3 times

@Ankur Bawiskar ,
In the "do the following Until " tool  "Go Back" tool is not working.
here, My query is i want to limit the go back tool loop only certain times after certain limit overs the flow should move forward.
