A company uses a model-driven app.
The company needs to automatically update the Status column in real time.
You need to configure this feature.
Solution: Create a workflow that has an Update Record step.
Does the solution meet the goal?
- A. Yes
- B. No Correct
Explanation
The solution does not meet the goal. Classic Dataverse workflows can run in real time (synchronously), but the Update Record step is not how a workflow changes a row's status. Dataverse workflows provide a separate Change Status step, which changes the status of the row the process runs on or of related rows. Status (and the status reason that goes with it) is set through a state change, not through the column values that the Update Record step sets. To update the Status column automatically, the workflow must use the Change Status step, so a workflow that only has an Update Record step does not meet the requirement.
