Can't tell if you are processing one record on the 2 other forms or groups of 
records so I will assume it is one record each. Instead of thinking of it as 
waiting on the other forms, take the approach of when to tell the staging form 
to go.

LJ is on the right track where there needs to be some piece of data that tells 
the staging form to go. If the forms are processed in sequence, then maybe you 
can use the last modified date on the second form to push the go signal to 
staging form.  If you are processing a lot of records, then you might consider 
pushing the results to a pre-staging form that then issues the go. Join form 
might be another option to look at.

Andre,
You could write one filter that does a setfield from your 'other' form to check 
if it's done, then have a second filter that fires a goto action before the 
first one until it returns the results you are looking for....but I don't think 
this is a very good idea...

**
Hello,

Is there any way to add time to when a filter starts its execution?

I have a staging form that references 2 other forms and I need to add about 2
minutes of wait time to a filter that starts a filter guide. This filter needs 
to wait until
the processing of the other two forms are completed (Submit and Modify records)

Is there something that can be done to delay the start of the filter?

I want to keep everything in Filters and Filter Guides if possible.

Thanks,

Andre
