Auto close requested item when all catalog tasks are closed using Flow Designer

Corey Harris

Good morning developers,

I know this question has been asked several times on here but I haven't found a solution that meets my requirements. The only thing I'm trying to do is automatically close the requested item once all catalog tasks have been closed using flow designer but nothing I tried works. Here are the conditions I'm using to update the requested item:

Could someone help me figure out what I'm doing wrong?

 

Best regards,

What exactly is not working?  Is it closing the Requested item to soon, not at all, or something else?

Last I tried this all you needed to do is have a very last step that set the stage to "Complete" and the Requested Item would close.  So try adding a last step that really does nothing and adding the stage "Complete" to that.

Thanks Drew! I just checked out the knowledge article and followed the directions exactly as far as creating an update record to mark the stage complete but still nothing:

I even added setting the state to complete and setting active to false but that didn't work either. I may have to submit a HI ticket to see what's going on.

Is there a regular workflow attached to the Requested Item?  That could cause these kinds of issues.

 

You could also do some business rule debugging to see if there is a BR getting in your way.

Hi,

Similar to what Drew mentioned; from my experience having the 'Completed' stage added does the trick. (I'm sure it triggers the 'Set Active Flag' business rule on the sc_req_item table).

Thanks Geoff! Yeah I tried doing that but that still didn't work for me.
