Workflow tasks queuing up too many

Hi, I am having issues with acheiveing a workflow that is triggered by a list to send clients event reminders and includes some tasks for our internal team as part of the workflow. But my workflow is queuing up too many tasks. It looks as though it is creating a task for every contact in the list (85). We just want one task to be created. Does anyone know of a workaround to help me achieve this?

Sent invite to list → branch to see who registered → send reminder → set an internal task to update the document → event happens.

Thanks

Hi @NCroft,

Workflows look at records one by one. If 85 contacts enroll and you don’t apply additional logic, the workflow will create 85 tasks.

If you just want one task to be created, the by far simplest option would be to create it manually. Would anything speak against that?

Best regards

@NCroft a separate WF could create a single, daily Task to go check on a thing and make updates. In addition this WF could continue to be the thing that makes more Tasks as you discover other reminders you need to have. If automating the Task creation is what you’re after.
