I want workflow to be triggered multiple times and create multiple versions

[samuelscott]

I have an approval workflow that is triggered halfway through a process (not involving a workflow) and the trigger starts whenever the stage of the process is "Awaiting Approval". There are cases when if the user rejects the approval, the process goes back one stage until the end-user fulfills a task and resends the process to the stage "Awaiting approval)

Everything is working fine except:

1. I want to change the status of a field from another table

2. No new approvals are created and I believe the reason is that the workflow is not re-running from the start even though the stage has come back to "Awaiting Approval"

Below is an image demonstrating the trigger of the workflow (I'm sure it has to do with the condition being "is" insted of "changes to", which doesn't exist as an option.

Thanks!!!!

Out of the box, workflows will only trigger once. However, you can personalize the workflow properties and add 'Run Multiple'. Every time the conditions are true, the workflow will start:

Thanks Michael, but it seems that I don't have that checkbox.

Right, out of the box it's not on the form. You can personalize the form layout just like any other form and add that field.

Oh, I see what you mean. I tried it and it did run for a second time but it automatically ran through the same path that the previous workflow took and did not recreate the approvals.
