Hi,
This may be far-fetched, but I am wondering if it is possible to allow a User to schedule a workflow to execute at a Custom Date/Time? Whereby the User does this via a Form?
For example:
- User enters data onto different Fields on a Form
- One of the Form Fields is a 'Schedule Date' calendar control
- User enters the Date/Time for the Schedule
- User clicks Save
- Workflow is set to start on the 'Schedule Date'
If this is not possible, my current 'Plan B' would be to have a pre-defined reoccurring workflow schedule setup in K2 Management, whereby an interval is set (for example, every 30 minutes).
- Then there is logic within the workflow to loop through and process Data from all users, based on the entered schedule date
- For this to work I may have logic on the Form so that the user can only enter the Time on every half hour (for example 10:30am, 11.00am)
I'm starting to think 'Plan B' is probably the better way to go about doing this. However I wanted to explore all options at the moment. The only 'observation' with Plan B is how often I would need to run the schedule (i.e. every 30 mins, every 5 mins etc.). Which will be determined by requirements further down the line...
Thanks!
