Cannot move Business Process Flow to Next Stage

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 22

Hello,

 

I am attempting to create a business process flow based on the standard Account (renamed to Organization) entity. There is one user-entered required field on the table, Organization Name, which is the name field for the table. The system required fields on the table are; Organization (the ID field), Owner, and Status.

 

I create a Stage in my BPF with only the Organization Name field on it. Then I create another stage based on the Organization table (or any other table), with some additional field on it. There is no condition between the stages. I then save and activate my BPF.

 

When I test my BPF by creating a new Organization record, I fill in the Organization Name field and then successfully save the record. At this point, I would expect to see the button on my stage that allows me to move to the next stage since the required field contains data, but I do not see the button. I can click on the next stage in the stage bar above the record, but it has a status of Inactive and is not the current stage.

 

I have confirmed that there are no workflows (real-time or background), no business rules, and no Flows configured on the Organization table. I have also tried this same basic BPF using a fresh environment and database and it works OK, so it must be caused by something in my environment.

 

What is preventing my simple BPF from moving to the next stage?

I have the same question (0)

    I tried creating an even simpler BPF on the Contacts table. One stage, one data step for First Name (the only user-entered required field). That's it.

     

    I tested by creating a new Contact record, filled in the First Name field, and saved the record.

     

    There is no Finish button on my single-stage BPF.

     

    I tried this same simple BPF on two of my custom tables and it worked OK on them, I got the Finish button after saving the record. So, it must be something I have done with my Account and Contact tables.

     

    Still looking for a solution.
