Asynch Task Triggering

Parallel branches are complete when x number of y branches are complete.
 
I.E.  I have a workflow with 3(y) parallel branches, but I only require 2(x)
branches to complete.  If two branches are complete, the uncompleted work
items in the third branch are set to the status of LOGICALLY DELETED.
 
So, it may not have worked for you at all.

HI Karen,
 
Thanks for your reply.
 
1.        Parallel branches are a good idea.. but it means that my
workflow has to wait for the user to execute the task before the
Workflow completes.
2.        an event would work. Definitely Asynch.. just trying to avoid
the tRFC calls
3.        Not sure what you mean by this.
 
I ended just coding a method that triggers the task. That way my main WF
can just complete.

I don't know exactly what you are looking for or trying to do, but I
will
offer some alternatives.
 
1.  Set up parallel branches in your workflow.  The asynchronous step
will
wait for its event but not start other steps for executing.
 
2.  Use the event creator to create an event in your workflow which will
be
used to start another workflow containing this asynchronous task.
 
3.  Change the underlying method to synchronous.

Hi All,
 
Does anyone know of a way for me to trigger a Task from my main workflow
asynchronously (hope that i spelt that right). I know i could write a
method
that triggers the task asynchronously but is there a way of doing it
without
writing the method? I just want the Workflow to call the task and then
continue
(not to wait for it to complete).
