Pipeline Not Triggering

Thanks to those of you who have helped me get this project manager up and running! I'm encountering I think the last issue related to this specific workflow I'm trying to tackle. When marking off a task on project 5, I want it to create a task on project 8. This is currently how I have it set up, but changing the task in project 5 to complete does not trigger the pipeline to start.

  • I figured out a work around involving creating a formula - text field that reflects the status of the multiple choice field.  Now if it references that field instead of the Mult Choice, it works.  I had to do this when another pipeline wouldn't fire, and decided to try it here as well.

  • What kind of field is the Task Status in the Project?  If it is some sort of Look Up from a a Status Change Table, then it will not fire the Pipeline.

  • Multiple Choice  text will fire a Pipeline.  Since you have two criteria in the Filter unless there is something very strange like corruption in the Pipeline, it should be running.

    Do you have a QB report that shows how many tasks are related to Project 5?  My next thought is that the first criteria is False.
