ServiceNow Workflows: Give a workflow a nudge from business rule

This is an example of how to "nudge" a workflow to ensure a wait for condition is re-evaluated (e.g. scripted wait for with a GlideRecord)

as an alternative to broadcast event to workflow where you want to steer clear of events

// Give the workflow a nudge to re-evaluate its Wait for condition

var req = new GlideRecord('task');

if (req.get(current.parent)) {

var wf = new global.Workflow().getRunningFlows(req);

while (wf.next()) {

new global.Workflow().broadcastEvent(wf.sys_id, 'update');

}

}
