Deadlines lost in loop

[Mark Pyc]

G'day Gerald,

Are you using deadlines such as "Workitem Creation + 3 days" or are
you passing in an expresion value that you've somehow calculated? In
the later case you would need to ensure that the value of the
expresion remained valid for each loop pass.

Just a thought.

Have fun,
Mark
