[Vtigercrm-developers] Workflow Task Execute After Delay

[Sreenivas Kanumuru]

Alan,

Yes, the task is executed though the conditions changed during the delay.
This does make this feature not so useful in some cases. The only way to
address this is by having scheduled workflows, that run through all the
records to see if the condition is true, at the time the task is to be
executed.

Regards,
Sreenivas
