2730827 - Business rule is not triggering 2 workflows

Symptom

Rule to trigger 2 workflows is only triggering one workflow.

Environment

Employee Central - Workflow

Reproducing the Issue

  • Create a rule or 2 rules which set wfConfig value to some workflow.
  • Now when the transaction is done such that both rules trigger, only the last wfConfig set is triggering the workflow.

Cause

  • wfConfig is a single transient field storing the workflow value on one onSave action.
  • There can be only one workflow value stored here and the latest rule will always overwrite the previous value and the last wfConfig workflow is triggered.
  • Handbook link.

Resolution

Kindly raise an enhancement request, if the ability to trigger multiple workflows on single onSave action on an hris element is needed.
