Is there a way to assign a time frame to a Review Task for the Work Flow to continue on to the next process.  For example, we have a work flow that a bunch of people have to review.  In some cases, some people may not review it.  So if everyone hasn't reviewed the request in a set time frame like 3 days, the work flow will continue on past that task.

Review Task

do you mean 'Request review' task action?

would it be acceptable for you to use different action? other task actions have 'Escalation' option which works exactly like you request.

see eg. example Request data - Due date doesn't work

Yes.  So the escalation will move the work flow along to the next task if everyone hasn't responded?

yes, if you configure escalation to 'Complete Task'

Dear, 


If you don't want to Work with "Request Review", follow Marian Hatala‌ answer.

Otherwise, there is no escalation with "Request Review" action, you can have a work around by adding a parallel branches as per the images:

1-Parallel action

2-Left Branch

3-Right Branch

4-Full Image

What is the task that is showing above for "While Not Reviewed"?

That works, but how can you get the comments that were made in the "Request Review" Task?  It didn't allow for the comments to be published to the email.

Just for follow-up, I was able to use the "Assign a Flexi-Task".  You are able to have just one branch and added the escalation piece to the process.
