The logic of your flow needs to be adjusted. Your flow is being triggered when an item is modified in the list. You then have two parallel actions:
When using automated triggers, it's best practice to use a trigger condition. In your case, the easiest way would be to create two separate flows. One that triggers when the IT Completed column is updated and another that triggers when the HR Completed column is updated. Ensure you add a trigger condition to each of your flows so they only trigger when their respective column is marked as completed.
Trigger conditions can be set in most flow triggers. These conditions you set must be true for the trigger to fire.
In this Power Automate tutorial, I’m going to show you how to use trigger conditions in your flows to control when your Power Automate flows trigger. If your plan has flow run limits—you can avoid triggering your flows unnecessarily by using trigger conditions.
I’ll cover four different flow examples that would benefit from trigger conditions:
⚡️ Triggering a flow when a column is changed to a specific value
⚡️ Triggering a Flow When an Event Updated or Deleted
⚡️ Triggering a Flow When a New Folder is Created
⚡️ Triggering a Flow When a Specific Email is Received
I’ll also show you a trick on how to easily create the expressions needed and give you a few tips on how to troubleshoot your flow.
