Workflow - marking work items as obsolete

299 Views

I'm working on a workflow that allows cost center managers to approve or reject purchase requisitions. I'm trying to create some logic that will trigger the workflow when the purchase req is significantly changed, in addition to just being created. When it gets changed, I want to be sure that it's not deleted. If it was deleted rather than being changed some other way, I want to mark all active work items for that particular req as obsolete so they're no longer out there for approval. I put in a "set obsolete" step for each piece of the workflow that creates a work item prior to terminating the workflow. When I try to test this, however, the workflow DOES recognize that the req was deleted, but it doesn't even show the "set obsolete" steps in the log, it just terminates. The "set obsolete" step doesn't seem to have much to it, but is it possible that I'm just doing something wrong?

Thanks,

Eric
