The real question is... is this actually possible? And is this at all a sensible thing to do?
In a perfect world, setting an order from Open to Released is -as stated in your question- just amending the status.
But there is so much more going on: Releasing an order is so much more than flipping a switch.
The assumptions that you make when you 'just amend the status' are:
(from the top of mind mind... there will be a lot more when you dig into the actual code)
- there are no approval workflows for this order
- there are no pre-payments for this issue
- there is no custom code extension of the Release function that could prevent the order to be released
My bottom line: you cannot simply flip the switch, unless your Power Automate flow is able to
- handle all errors being thrown
- leave the order in Open if the flip fails.
If you do need to make batch updates to Release multiple orders, why not try:
The orders that cannot be released will then remain open, the eligible ones will be released.
