"Approve" button => set "Action" field value to "TA" by rule , and then trigger workflow to owner1

  • i think you should move your "Leader Approval" workflow code block after "the wait for Action to not equal SE" or if these two are created as stage then use "Go to stage" action after "the wait for Action to not equal SE" and put the "Go to stage" value as "Leader Approval" .

In central admin there is a timer job called workflow. I would check that timer job to see what interval it is set at or if it is failing.

To view the workflow timer job:

  1. go to central admin-->monitoring-->
  2. under timer jobs click on review job definitions

enter image description here

  1. locate timer job "workflow"

enter image description here

  1. From here you'll be able to see how often this timer job runs. Mine is set to run every 5 minutes.

To see if that timer job is failing:

  1. In the same section as the job definition there will be a link on the left hand side called job history.

enter image description here

  1. filter the list to failed jobs and search for the workflow timer job

enter image description here

Looking at these items might help determine if the workflow isn't being triggered because of something outside of the workflow itself.
