Flow Designer - Create catalog task after closure of one of multiple tasks

Will Yerkovich

Hello,

 

I have a scenario in my Flow Designer workflow where I have 6 catalog tasks being created simultaneously. My goal is to create another task after one of those 6 are closed. I have played around with the wait for condition, if statements, and "do the following in parallel" flow logic. Appreciate any insight into how I can accomplish this!

This isn't elegant, but it works.  For the sake of the example I only created 2 tasks instead of 6.  I then put in a Do Until, where the action is to wait for 1 minute (you can make it less, or more based on what makes sense for your scenario although I wouldn't recommend making the interval much smaller than a minute).  For the Until conditions, I check each of the Tasks to see if one of them has been closed (no longer Active).  After one task meets that criterion, the flow continues to create the next task.

There are other ways that this could be done, but I think this is the simplest.
