    Add Timed Wait steps in SAP Build Process Automation

    Follow Background

    While working on my Purchase Order Scenario in SAP Build Process Automation I stumbled upon a very interesting feature – after
     Like doing some research on our Help-Portal I found this has been released very recently.  It’s the latest functionality to add a timed wait
    inside your process logic, which I am going to show you right now!

     RSS Feed Timed Wait Feature

    As an example I have created a small workflow scenario to generate Purchase Orders in SAP ECC based on an approval step in
    between. Inside the process logic, I have added some triggers, forms and Mail-notifications to involve certain business-users.

    In this case I specifically require that the Purchase Order should be generated in ECC with a delay of 3 days. To give other people
    time to intervene.

    After clicking on the +Button I can add controls to my logic like Conditions, Branches and Wait:

    Those timed waits can be added and configured for the following intervals:

    Minutes
    Hours
    Days
    Months

    These intervals then occur from the time the live process first reaches that point. As an example, if the process reaches a 1 hour
    timed wait at 09.37, the process continues at 10.37.

    I can add as many wait steps as I require and wherever I need them:

    Conclusion

    I am very delighted by this new capability – I will now keep an open eye to the announcements at our Help-Portal because our
    engineering teams add new capabilities frequently.
