Question 10

You have a time-based workflow action scheduled to fire tomorrow and it is visible in the Time-Based Workflow Queue. Which statement is true, if the criteria for this time-based workflow action is no longer valid once you update the record today?
  • A Nothing. The time-based workflow action will still display in the Time-Based Workflow Queue, and it will fire as originally scheduled tomorrow.
  • B A confirmation window displays, once you update the record, informing you that there is a pending action waiting in the Time-Based Workflow Queue. You will be prompted to either remove the action or allow it to remain via a Yes/No question.
  • C The time-based workflow action will be removed from the Time-Based Workflow Queue and will no longer display, since the criteria for this action is no longer valid.
Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The Time-Based Workflow Queue displays pending actions in your org, along with the time that they are set to happen. If the corresponding record is updated and the criteria that originally places the action in the Time-Based Workflow Queue is no longer valid, the action is removed from the Time-Based Workflow Queue automatically.
