Hi @random_guy_tech ,

Consider the below workflow,

Time constraint activity settings:

Case -1 : If 'Try again later if outside of execution period' is Unchecked:

- If the workflow triggers at 7 AM (before 8AM or after 9 AM), only JS-1 will get executed and workflow will get finished. 

- If the workflow triggers at any time between 8 AM to 9 AM, then both JS-1 and JS-2 will get executed. 

 

Case - 2 : If 'Try again later if outside of execution period' is Checked:

- If the workflow triggers at 7 AM (before 8AM or after 9 AM), only JS-1 will get executed at 7 AM  and the workflow will wait for the time specified in 'Time constraint' activity, and once the time is reached, then JS-2 will get executed at 8 AM.
