Hi,


A process gets triggered with cutoffdatetime being passed as datafield. On this cutoffdate a database column should be updated in the custom database even after process gets completed or is in active state. Process should not wait for this update at any time but update should happen at cutoffdatetime. How to achive this?


Thanks,


Shilpa

Any particular reason why you need to have the field as a datafield since it already exists in a database? It's recommended practice to keep as much business data outside the process as possible. That way you can access and change the data at any point without the need to touch the Workflow. It also simplifies reporting and there's no duplication of data.
