Workflow problem in Fork parallel steps

[Former Member]

Hi Friends,

I have a background step in workflow which may not come out after execution and goes to dump in background but, still the status of the step shows 'In process'.

I still want to process my workflow. So, I have done as below

Created a Fork step with 2 parallel branches.

1st branch will have the actual background step and 2nd branch has a background task to wait for 10 secs.

When I process the fork step as usual 1st task in background is not executed and status shows 'In process' but, 2nd step has status 'Ready'. It is not processed even though it is a background task.

Please suggest.

Changed the task to asynchornous

does the tow task havea ny kind of dependencies?

the basic rule you need to follow while you are using the FORK is

The individual branches of a fork should be functionally independent.
