Loops, calling a process until condition is me

rbross

Hello,
Wondering if any one has com across this situation.
Is the a way to call a process repeatedly until a condition is met.
I have a situation where we need a ENTERNEW_For_BO process to be called again until the user has added all the necessary records.
Currently when the condition calls for this it will call the ENTERNEW_BO Process once. Then the user has to continue to Hit Add Button until all the required records have been added. In this case it when The total $$ amount for each record added = the Total amount given. The Total Amount given displays in a different color so they know they are still out of balance.

I was wondering if I could do this with a Rule on the BO. If the condition exists then call the process to enter a new record.

Any idea's...

Not in a BO rule. Rules do not allow for user interaction, even if the rule triggers a process. So you have to encapsulate the whole thing into a process.

Thanks, my test worked which I did do in a process.
I did get an error when I had the rule in the BO.
So the process works like this:
Process A calls process B, process B calls process C, if condition is not met process C calls process B which calls process C again and the loop continues until the condition is met.

I was able to repeat this loop 10 times and all the records were created and the parent was updated correctly as well. 😃
