Loop in Latest end in workflow (remainder 3 times after 48 hrs )

[Former Member]

Hi Workflow World,

    In my senario i have a user decision in which i have maintained latest end for 48 hrs .so every 48 hrs its getting triggered thats fine but i need to trigger it only 3 times then send a notification to creator .

i tried keeping a loop with counter and incrimenting 1 for every loop which is not working .Once latest end is reached it doesnt go into loop.

Can you please suggest 3 remainders for every 48 hrs in latest tab then exist .

thanks in advance

HI ANJAN,

1) I created a User decision in which i have maintained a latest end of 2 mins .

2) initiated a counter with value 1

3) created a wait step with  requested start for 2 mins

4) incremented the the count  and kept the loop

5) if 3 times loop is run then stop the workflow

currently in wait step is executing but loop is not working

please suggest,

Hello,

What condition did you use for the Loop?

It's not too hard to get a loop to work, just use a counter and a wait step. Try it in a separate test workflow first. Make sure the counter is getting incremented.

What exactly is the problem - it doesn't go into the loop at all? Or the loop never stops?

Hi Rick ,

Thanks for ur reply .

1)  once the latest end is reached

2) a counter (container operation)  is initialised as 1.

3) wait event is kept with requested start for 2 mins .

6)  loop was kept with condiation where count = 3 .

7) again loop goes to step 2  counter = counter + 1.

😎 once the counter is 3 its comes out of loop.

in my case in workflow log i can see upto step 3 . wait event is triggered after that its not going futhur

in separate workflow when i tried its working .

can you suggest me wht i am missing .

"3) created a wait step with  requested start for 2 mins"

Is that Zquotedummy? Exactly how did you define it so it would wait 2 minutes.
