As-is Process:
In monday.com workflows, there is a feature called a ‘wait’ action which allows multiple steps to be included and leverages the power of workflows. However, if there is a need to edit the workflow, such as adding or removing someone from a notification or changing the workflow itself, all ongoing runs are stopped and will not continue. For example, if there is a step in the workflow that waits for a status to change within a specific timeframe, any runs waiting at that step will be stopped if a change is made to the workflow, even if the change does not affect them at that point.
Problem:
The issue with the current process is that any edit to the workflow, regardless of its impact on the ongoing runs, results in all ongoing runs being stopped. This can disrupt the workflow continuity and impact the efficiency of the process.
Feature Request:
To address this gap, it would be beneficial to implement a feature that allows for editing the workflow without stopping ongoing runs that are not affected by the edit. This would ensure that the workflow continuity is maintained, and ongoing runs are not unnecessarily disrupted by unrelated changes to the workflow.
