    Do you mean a reoccurring workflow?

    If so, here is a great blog post on it and the accompanying YouTube video

    Hi Amiliy,

    I guess you want to Schedule a workflow.

    There is OOB Wait Condition in Dynamics CRM Workflow but they should not be used because of the performance issue.

    However, I will give you a workaround.

    1. Create an Entity, say WorkflowScheduler

    2. Create a Record of this Entity

    3. Create a Workflow with the logic you want to implement (in your case you already have it, the one which you want to run every 24 hours). This workflow will run on the Delete event of the WorkflowScheduler Entity. This workflow will also create another Record of WorkflowScheduler Entity.

    4. Create a Bulk Delete System Job. Schedule it to run when you want your Workflow logic to execute.

    Just to explain what will happen.

    When the Bulk Delete Job runs, it will delete the WorkflowScheduler Entity record, which will then trigger the Workflow and will also create one record for WorkflowScheduler for the next Bulk Delete Job.

    This will then become a recursive event in your Dynamics CRM environment.

    Hope that helps

    Thanks
