I have two sub flows running at the same time one for a laptop and one for mobile,
laptop mobile
| clean laptop | clean mobile |
| update software | update iOS |
| contact user | contact user |
| box laptop | box laptop |
| wait for mobile to complete its stuff | wait condition to check if laptop complete it stuff |
| Deliver Device (on both sub flows need just one sub flow to run it) | Deliver Device (on both sub flows need just one sub flow to run it) |
| laptop tracking task | mobile tracking task |
| more laptop task | more mobile tasks |
the issue that I am having is sometimes a mobile flow can run on its own sometimes a laptop can run on its own , and then we have both running at the same time. issue is both need their own tasks, the issue is both have the deliver device in their sub flows BUT we want to only generate on task for deliver device. Right now if a laptop and mobile flow is running it generate two tasks that says deliver device...I want to be able to chose one flow to run the deliver device if two flows are running and I'm having a hard time on how to get this working. I put in wait conditions but not sure if there is a way in flow designer to just skip a task if the other flow had done it

@ServNowDev ,
One suggestion would be to keep the Deliver Device Task on the main flow and trigger it when the tasks are completed in the subflow. I am not sure how practical that would be in your scenario, but I think it's a better way to manage I guess.
