Delay Task: Pause a Workflow Until It's Time
ยท 4 min read
Some steps in a process shouldn't happen straight away. A purchase order might need a cooling-off period after approval. A welcome email should go out on the new hire's start date, not the day the form was approved. An automated call to an external system might need a window where someone can still stop it.
Until now, handling this meant someone had to remember to come back and move the submission along. The new Delay task does it for you: it pauses the submission, then continues the workflow automatically when the time comes.
