WorkflowManager - Automatic Execution

Question

Dear All,

In workflow manager, under "Detailed Step Properties", I had enabled the option "Automatically executes when reached". But during implementation that particular step is not executed automatically. Is there any additional settings/properties to be configured? Please clarify.

There's a quirk to how this functionality was first implemented. You also need to check the step in front of the step you want to run automatically with Automatic Execute. This 'alerts' the system that the next step will be running automatically.

It is unfortunately not intuitive but we can't change it or it would break everyone's workflows.

Thanks,

Michael

If we uses 'Run Current Step' tool which is available in the execution toolbar then it is working fine. But if we uses 'Run Step' option which appear on 'Right-Click' event then it fails to implement the 'Automatically executes when reached' option.
