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.
