How to create a parallel block in SPD?
I have a parallel block in SPD Workflow, each of parallel thread – task for different groups of employees. Everything is ok if everybody agree and click “Approve” or disagree and click “Reject”. But it should be one more option – “Remake” Every group have a possibility to send the task back to initiator for adding or fixing some info.
When to use parallel block to enter two conditions?
If a workflow requires two conditions to be run, for example: If condition A AND If condition B, then the way to enter both of these tests into the workflow, joined with “and”, is to first add a “parallel block” to the workflow. Before we define a “parallel block”, it may be useful to talk about action sequence in SharePoint Designer 2010.
When to use a parallel block in SharePoint Designer?
Now we can define a “parallel block” as an optional method of adding actions, or conditions to a SharePoint Designer 2010 workflow. This method appears as a clickable option in the SharePoint Designer 2010 ribbon. A parallel block will not work unless a pair of actions, or conditions, are added to it.
When does the initiator leave the parallel block?
After initiator finishes his task he close it and it should go to the stage where it came from. And after all remarks fixed and everybody clicked “Approve” workflow leave the parallel block. I really do not know how implement this logic.
