Process - need a wait/sleep loop

pixerp

In a process, I use EXPORT DOCUMENT to a folder. An external script takes care to automatically convert it to PDF.

Now using FILE_EXISTS(), I can check that the pdf was created but I don't know how to suspend the process for a few seconds and loop back to FILE_EXISTS ....

Thanks for any help.
