Stop workflow with another workflow

Hi,

Could you stop several workflows by running another workflow? I have tried to update the Status (state) of the workflows but that does not seem to work and you cannot seem to update the execution status of a workflow.

Hi,

We can create and use custom  status field at the beginning of the workflow,to start or stop the workflows. Keep a check in the first activity, If the status = 'Y', then the workflow will move to next step else the workflow stops.

 

By default, status = 'Y', so workflows run as usual. In any scenario, if you want to stop the workflows then you can update the status to 'N'.

 

Thanks,
