SharePoint designer 2010 loop

Question

I'm using sharePoint designer 2010. I create difference workflows for difference list, How can I create Workflow loop?
I need to create loop inside a specific workflow that remind the manager (manager - name that Situated inside a list item) to insert some data to the list (data like dates, nams etc).

Answer 1

Out of the box there is no option to create loops within a SharePoint workflow. What you'll need to do is:

• either have the workflow stop and restart itself. This will only work if your workflow includes a pause.
• or create two identical workflows that trigger each other

This was answered in a recent question but I can't find it right now...

Answer 2

SPD Workflows have a habit of looping, you could set the workflow to run on update, and each iteration update something which will trigger the WF to fire again. Not a great solution but should work

Answer 3

Out of the box, you cannot loop through designer workflow. But if you need to start another workflow from with in a workflow refer this,
