Race to the Finish Line

[Alon Raskin]

Not bad Gavin. I like this one because it means I don't need to make any changes to the structure of my WF. 99 should address 'MOST' of the situations but not all. Problem is that the customers with more then 99 PoDs are huge customers and we don't really want to have to manually work them (there could be 100s). 
 
Good suggestion though. Thanks.

Hi Alon,

At the workflow step level you can override the global setting in SWU3
for the number of retries for work items with temporary errors. It's
on the Miscellaneous tab (I think it used to be the Other tab) and I
believe the limit is 99.

Not ideal, but maybe better than the wait step..?

Gavin

Of course, the first thing that happens is that each instance tries to update the Business Partner (the same one) and this results in a large number of temporary application errors. This is no big deal but if I have 50 instances of the WF for the same Business Partner then I am going to get a lot of errored workflows.
