    How does the previous value in Processes Start Condition work?   What's the algorithm behind it?  Thanks  -R

    You need to enable Audit Trail for attribute you want to use for start codnition.

    I'm trying to create a process that kicks off when allocations are updated within Clarity. Project managers would like to be notified anytime the allocations are changed. What I'm finding is that I cannot select Allocation previous value even with the Audit enabled for this field within the team object.  Any ideas what might be wrong or any other ways to send out a notice when allocations are updated?

    Was there ever a solution found for this?

    I'm using a similar start condition on a process we run. I think you're trying to do the logic backwards.

    ( Project Promise Date [Previous Value] != Project Promise Date )

    ....is my start condition. So its saying if the previous value is not the same as the current value, start the process.

    Looks like this a limitation. The previous value logic in Clarity process is not working for any subobject of master object. I also tried the same and it is not showing any value in Previous Attribute list.


    Matthew@ It works in both way backward as well as forward.

    Is this considered to be a limitation for the application or is it a bug? I tried doing the same thing doesn't seem to be working still.

    Is there a work around for this? Chris_Hackett

    Hi Sagar,

     

    We have some bug on this part, it would be better to open a case and we can validate.

    Start Condition can use the 'previous attribute' functionality only on the object that is set as primary object. This primary object can be a master object or it can be a sub object. Suggested to customer to choose Task object as a primary object and link it to Project object.
