Neel, $GROUPS$ = The list of groups (in name format) that the user executing the workflow is in. This will not search the whole database. It is the same as what you see in the Group List when you look at a User record for a user. Fred

I believe that LIKE keyword will search the whole database and I think it will find at least one record where $GROUPS$ is %System POC% AND the 'Dialog_Prev_Status' is one of those 3. May be you need to narrow-down to a record level somehow to avoid having to scan the whole table. I would put a pre-condition like have another field on the form and (let's say temp_group) set temp_group = "YES" if (($GROUPS$ LIKE "%System POC%" ) OR ($GROUPS$ LIKE "%Reshipment%" ) OR ($GROUPS$ LIKE "%Quality Assurance%" )) otherwise set it to "NO" And then re-write your original qual as (( 'Dialog_Prev_Status' = "Closed" ) OR ( 'Dialog_Prev_Status' = "Helpdesk Working" ) OR ( 'Dialog_Prev_Status' = "Pending Vendor" )) AND (temp_group = "YES") I hope this helps.

Here's the condition. (( 'Dialog_Prev_Status' = "Closed" ) OR ( 'Dialog_Prev_Status' = "Helpdesk Working" ) OR ( 'Dialog_Prev_Status' = "Pending Vendor" )) AND (($GROUPS$ LIKE "%System POC%" ) OR ($GROUPS$ LIKE "%Reshipment%" ) OR ($GROUPS$ LIKE "%Quality Assurance%" )) If it evaluates to true, a message pops up that tells the user they don't have permission to update a ticket that had a previous status of: $Dialog_Prev_Status$ The problem is, this always evaluates to true if $GROUPS$ = "System POC" regardless of the value of Dialog_Prev_Status. I unhid Dialog_Prev_Status to make sure, and I had a ticket where Dialog_Prev_Status = "Sys POC Working" and it still evaluated to true and didn't allow the System POC to update the ticket. I'm sure it's something boneheaded that I'm missing but I can't wrap my head around it. Michael A.
