How to create parallel tasks for MRVS in flow designer

[Anusha Anus]

Using Flow Designer, I can able to create tasks for Multirow variable set sequentially. Once the first task is completed, the second task is getting created.  But I need to create tasks parallelly.

Please guide me on it.

Thanks in advance,

Sneha.

Hi @Anusha Anus 

If I am not wrong, Parrllel approval not available in Flow designer and to do this you need to use sub flow/task.

Unfortunately parallel approvals are not supported by flow designer. You might find some solutions by creating a catalog task and tick the „wait” box or use the „run in parallel” options, but with foreach these don't work

Hello Sneha,

Simply do the following:

1. Go into your Flow in Flow Designer
2. Click add Flow Logic
3. Select Do the following in Parallel
4. Add your tasks in this branch

You are still able to use the wait condition on SC Tasks

I think at best you can:

1. Use a 'For Each' to pull apart your MRV
2. Nothing in the child steps (Catalog Tasks) can have a 'wait' in it, others you won't get the equivalent of it 'running in parallel'
3. After #1's For Each, put in a 'Lookup Records' for all Catalog Tasks under the parent RITM
4. Setup a For Each for records from #3
5. Under #4, put in a Wait for Condition that waits until all the Catalog Tasks have been closed.
