Wait For Project State

Overview

Sometimes you might want to have a workflow wait for a project to be completed before you continue the workflow. For example, say you launch a project and assign it to somebody to complete the work. After they complete the project you want to fire off a number of actions such as notifying the person who launched the workflow. You could do this by making them the requester of the project but you might want to include lots of additional details in your "it's all done" e-mail. This action will let you do that as it will pause execution of the activity until the project changes to the specified state.
