Hi Riyaz
As i said,
1) Create an attribute
new_workflowrundate (datetime)
2) Register a plugin on post create, On Post Create Plugin of Service Activity update
new_workflowrundate to the actual date on which the workflow should run. (you can easily check in your C# code when should be the next working day)
In the above step once the Post create plugin is fired, you will write some logic to update the
new_workflowrundateIt could be something like this
public void PostCreateServiceActivity : IPlugIn
{
public void Execute()
{
DateTime dt = DateTime.Now;
if(dt.DayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.Firday)
dt = dt.AddDays(2); // Add 2 Days to move to Sunday ( or 3 for Monday which is the working day)
else if(dt.DayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.Saturday)
dt = dt.AddDays(1); // Add 1 Days to move to Sunday (or 2 for Monday which is the working day)
// now update the
new_workflowrundate = dt;
DynamicEntity entity = new DynamicEntity();
// write the rest of the code to update the
new_workflowrundate = dt; attribute.
}
}
3) Create a workflow which will wait for the
new_workflowrundate. Configure this workflow to run on the CHANGE of the new_workflowrundate. From MS CRM UI, create a non code workflow with wait condition.
Add a
Wait Condition step and configure the step.
a. Select Workflow from the entity list (first drop-down list).
b. Select Timeout from the attribute list (second drop-down list).
c. Select Equals from the operator list (third drop-down list).
d. Select new_workflowrundate from the Form Assistant
e. Save the configuration
Below the wait conditions you can write your steps which should happen after the wait condition is finished.
4)
Configure this workflow to run on the change of the attribute new_workflowdate.
5) Publish the above workflow.
Explanation:-Now once you create a service activity, a post create plugin will be fired, which will update the
new_workflowdate to the date it should run the workflow.
Since the attribute
new_workflowdate has been changed it will trigger the workflow, but the first condition of the workflow is to wait until
new_workflowdate occurs, so the next step you can do after the wait conditions is to write your logic (which will happen once the wait is finished)
