I require a Workflow wait for condition to wait for 4 change tasks to complete before moving to raise the next change task.

Hi,

I have a workflow which requires 4 change tasks to be completed before moving to the next stage - see attachment.

Does anyone have a script that could help.

Thanks

Steve

I use something similar to whatTim Black uses except I just check for active tasks.   Also note it is good to check other types of records to see if they tasks are closed or not before processing.

//Query for all tasks to see if they are inactive

var rec = new GlideRecord('change_task');

rec.addQuery('change_request', current.sys_id);

rec.addQuery('active', true);

rec.query();

if(rec.hasNext()){

  answer = false;

}

else{

  //Continue

  answer = true;

}

I do the same if i am waiting for ALL tasks to close.. in this case he stated he needed to wait for just those four tasks to close

i also see a parallel branch off of task 1.. so a normal join may not be reliable in this case.. which is why i suggested using workflow variables as tags.. and just wait for all for tags to go true.
