Task is running, but it's not created

Create Requirements task is never created, and it always show "Running" state. The only way I get this Task to be created is if I remove Wait for completion condition and that triggers an Approval, so once I Reject any of the two approvals, which at that point should go to Adjust Requirements Template task.

I think it would make more sense to create workflow on requested item table instead of request. Because catalog tasks are usually linked to requested item instead of request.

I also have a feeling that the task is getting creating. Are you setting a parent and requested item field sysid in the sc_task that you are creating.

Also, in future, it is better to use flow designer, because the support for workflow will be deprecated.

Curious, why didn't you use Catalog task activity for this instead of Create Task activity. I think a catalog task would work in this case, since it is a catalog.

I didn't have an option to use a catalog task. This is a workflow that is triggered when a particular choice is selected on Configuration item during creation of a new request.

Interesting. Is your workflow not on Requested Item table? It should show for a catalog task.

It's on Request [sc_request] table.
