Hi Everyone,

 

I have been asked to implement a feature that has me stumped and wanted
to see what others might do to implement the following workflow

 

1)     Parent form has a status field and can have many child records

2)    Child form also has a status field with similar options

 

Part 1 - User wants to have child records' status updated if Parent is
set to a certain status value.  Since there are a couple intermediate
tests to perform on this I implemented it using Filter that calls a
Filter Guide.

 

Part 2 - User wants Parent status updated if all the child records have
been updated to a certain status value - so if the last child record is
updated to status value then the parent should be updated.  Again
implemented via Filter that calls filter guide.  Here is where there are
problems if this workflow fires and updates the parent record the
workflow for part 1 will fire and the loop begins.

 

I tried to use the value of the $GUIDE$ property to prevent the loop but
no success.  

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks

Debra
