How to wait a duration (7 days, 30 days, etc.) in workflow before next task is fired?

[astanley]

Hello, I am trying to add a condition that after the first task is closed, the second task is not fired until 7 days after the first task is completed. How can I go about doing this? And would it be possible to test it without waiting the 7 days?

Hi Astanley,

If you a working in workflow editor, you can choose a item in core list which is named "Wait for condition" and write a script to Glide the task record and add 7/30 days to last updated time in if condition and set "answer='True'" in the block.

And if,

You are working in flow designer, you can select a action to look up record in task table and after that you can put a wait for activity and set it to 7/30 Days.

Please mark my answer helpful/correct whichever applicable.


Thanks and Regards,
Rahul

Hello @astanley ,

You can use simple Timer activity for this if you are using 'Workflows'. Mark my answer as correct if that helps.
