But this 1 minute has a delay of 5 minutes...
Is there a way to fix this?

Was it helpful?

Solution

The pause in Workflow is used by SharePoint Timer Job, when the timer job runs, the workflow run.

The default time is 5 minutes. So If something starts at 15:02, at 15:05 the timer job will process. Note that this time can be extended if the timer job cannot complete all the tasks. Eg. 15:02 starts, but only at 15:10 timer job can complete the request to "unpause" the workflow.

You can change in CA the timer job processing time, but you should know that maybe in 1 minute is not enough to process everything.
