Running Workflows on Case Resolution...

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I am running CRM 2013 on-prem  I have a workflow set to update a case form field when the case is resolved and the status changes from Active to Resolved. But, when I resolve the case the workflow errors out with an error of "This case has already been resolved. Close and reopen the case record to see the updates.". I have tried Async and background workflows and they both fail.

Is there a way to have a workflow execute against a resolved case, or delay the change of the case status until after the workflow process has finished?

    Hi Jay,

    You need to register the workflow in the pre-operation of update. Make the following change in your workflow:

    Select the 'Record status changes' option.

    Thanks,
