Flow Designer - Create RITM for an asset when stockroom quantity goes below threshold

[JordanDR]

Hi community,

In the current flow were able to set a condition for the trigger for when the quantity of an item in the stock room changes to a certain number. However, is there a way to set the condition for when the quantity of the item goes BELOW a certain number? There is an option for this in the generic filters so is it possible this could be scripted?

Hi JC,

Thanks for responding! Please see my response to Allen above. Unfortunately the flow retriggers everytime the quantity is changed to less than the threshold

Is this happening across multiple records? For instance, the flow gets triggered for User A, and then again for User B? Based on the Run Flow trigger condition in Allen's screenshot, it should only happen once per record. I'm not sure if you're using the same Run Flow trigger condition in your actual flow. You can read more about different flow trigger types here--hopefully this can provide some insight.

Hi,

I'm glad my reply was Helpful in that regard 🙂

The issue with run once is that it only runs...once for the life of the record. Since quantities could shift up and down over the life of that record, they may want to initiate a request (procurement) to acquire more (more than once over the life of the record) which is the context of my reply and trying to work with the author on a dynamic solution such as also tapping into the state field of it being ordered, etc.

However, yes, if they only wanted it to happen once, then yes, as in my screenshot, simply use the run once trigger (why I believe is the default anyway).
