+ | {{ :en:start:tasks:flow:task_delay.png?nolink|}} | ||
+ | This task allows you to insert one or more delays into your workflows, which pause the execution until a given date/time will be reach. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Options ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | You could combine multiple of this options, to use this universally | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Base Date | ||
+ | * Use the date from this field as base date and apply all options to them | ||
+ | * //Dynamically updated base date// means, the delay will be updated if you modify the field, which was selected as base date. So you could wait a period of time, which could be defined by users and could be modified after the delay was initiated | ||
+ | * minimum delay | ||
+ | * This Option guarantee a minimum wait time if you never want to act immediately | ||
+ | * Also this is the default delay, if you simple want to wait 1 hour | ||
+ | * you could set minutes/hours/days/weeks | ||
+ | * wait until next ... | ||
+ | * this option wait until one selected day of week is reached | ||
+ | * or wait until the given day of a month is reached | ||
+ | * wait until time is | ||
+ | * if you don’t want to continue this workflow before 8 o’clock, you can do this with this option. (Please pay attention to the UTC timezone) | ||
+ | * wait until custom time | ||
+ | * Here you could integrate your own custom function | ||
+ | * You have to return an Unix Timestamp, which overwrite the base date (All other options will be applied to this date, too!) | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you want to **wait until a field has a configured value**, please combine the features of delay and conditions. (For example if you want to wait until a checkbox was set) | ||
