Move Row Disables other Workflows

Andrea Mayer

Hi all -

I am looking into setting up a workflow that will move completed projects from one sheet to another once they are flagged as 'Complete'.  The workflow seems to work ok, but as soon as I set it up all my other workflows seem to be disabled and I receive this message: 'This workflow is being prevented from running.  Please correct the issue by editing your workflow'.  

Will additional workflows not function properly when using the Move Row workflow?

Screenshot of the workflows provided below.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Andrea,

Are you using the new Proofing feature?

I hope that helps!

Have a fantastic weekend!

Hi Andree - no I am not.

I was able to figure this out. I had some of the older 'basic workflows' enabled still.  They were disabled when I made this change. Thanks!

Ok. Glad you figured it out!

Adding a Move Row workflow shouldn't disable any other workflows. However, other workflows can be disabled for various reasons such as recipients being remove from the sheet and being no longer eligible for receiving notifications (if you have restrictive security settings), or a column used in the Workflow being removed. To find out the reason, edit the workflow that shows as "Invalid" or "Disabled by System" and the workflow editor should provide you the details. The Sheet owner and last editor of the workflow should also receive an email when any workflow is disabled by the system.

If you can't figure it out, feel free to set up time with me using this link - as I'd love to understand what the trouble is and how we can improve it.
