Issues with ATF not acknowledging a mandatory document has been attached

[Kathi]

I have created an ATF for a service catalog item.  This catalog item has the "Attachment mandatory" box checked on the Service Portal tab.  For the ATF, I used the "Add Attachments for Form (SP)", the documents are attached and that step is successful.  The next step is Order a Catalog Item (SP).  This step is failing.  When I watch the ATF run, the * remains red, even though the documents have been attached.  It seems as though the ATF is not acknowledging that the "Mandatory" has been satisfied.  To troubleshoot the issue, I unchecked the attachment mandatory box in the catalog item, then run the ATF, it runs successfully.  Not a huge issue, but if anyone has suggestions to get the ATF to acknowledge the mandatory attachment that would be appreciated.  Thanks.

Try adding a wait/sleep for few seconds after adding attachment and before submitting the catalog item.

Accept the solution and mark as helpful if it does, to benefit future readers.

Hi @Kathi 

Add wait/sleep or perform some activity like updating, validating before the step Order a catalog item(sp).

The order of my steps - Open a Catalog Item (SP), Set variable Values (SP), Set variable values (SP), Order catalog item, add attachments to Form (sp)

Per suggestions, I rearranged the order to - Open a catalog Item (sp), add attachments to form (sp), set variable values (sp), set variable values (sp), order a catalog item (sp) with a 15 sec wait.

Still failing at the order item step.

I removed the Mandatory requirement for the attachment; the ATF runs to the end successfully.  Add the mandatory back, it fails. The ATF is not acknowledging the attachments have been added and the "Mandatory" has been satisfied.
