Hi I am creating a change request process workflow as per below requirement. I am facing issue at dependent activity stage. The activities in Release record are actually not starting automatically. When i open the release record and click on Run then everything works perfect. I want to avoid this manual intervention in my workflow. Further i want to know that what are the other activities those can work with Dependent activity, I mean Review etc.

I have configure the Activities as below:

CHANGE REQUEST

02 Separate Review Activities for Approval> Then> Dependent Activity with Linked to Release Record and Then one Manual Activity.

RELEASE RECORD

01 Manual Activity for Test, 01 RA for Approval Pre-Production, Then 01 MA for Pre-Production deployment. 

Hi,

I have to say that I haven't found out other activities except for change request that can work with Dependent activity. And if you want to automatic run, you may try Orchestrator.

Here is a thread for your reference:
