can someone tell me if how I can transition based on date? meaning if I got a date as a response from a program and I had to run an activity 10 days after that date, how can I do that in buildtime? do i NEED a upes for this or can I do this in the builder itself...thnx- Nathan. _________________ Newbiedude |

I would probably put in a wait activity that would simply sleep for the 10 days and then expire. _________________ John McDonald

that sounds good, but the thing is that the 10 could be a 4 or a 2 or a 40 for different instances. how can i do that then? _________________ Newbiedude |

as the Date field is dynamic, I think you need a UPES (before the expired workitem) to retrieve the Date field and calculate wait time and make the work item expire using from container value. |
