MDM Workflow Expiry message

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have a scenario in which MDM workflow is active, workflow is working fine and there are absolutely no issues. The only problem is, For workflow owner, I am getting following message everyday (If workflow is not clear or executed).

The following workflow step is overdue because it has exceeded its expiration timeout:

Assignee: ; MDM System

Job: 10565

Job Owner: MDM System

Records: 1

Start time: 04/14/2011 00:22:19 GMT

Expiration time: 04/24/2011 00:22:19 GMT

Workflow: Workflow Name

Step: ABC

Description:

Repository: MDM Repository

May be some setting missing, I want to deactivale this workflow reminder. Can you please guide and help?

not sure on why you want to take the notifications out - for the sake of receiving harmless emails

u can direct them to the spam folder easily

but still if u wish

go to the workflow visio diagram -- find notify step -- and remove ur emai id from the settings.

thanks

This will stop ALL email notifications pertaining to THIS workflow to ur id.

Hello,

You may try the option, which has worked for me.

Increase the duration of the expiration, to the duration of the workflow.

ie make the number of days same.

Hello,

In the start step, we have duration time out,

in the approve and process step we also have duration time out.

Make these days as same.

or else you could include a rollback option in the workflow, if an item is rejected.

award points if useful

regards,

Abhishek
