Adding a Hold option to task outcome, not available in SPD

Question

I'm working on a workflow with SharePoint Designer. I have added a "Hold" option to the Task Outcome field, but the option isn't appearing in the Task Outcome options in SharePoint Designer (2013). I had previously done this for another workflow on another site collection, and the option appeared properly.

Is there a time delay between when the option appears, and is there a way to force SPD to update the field's options?

Answer 1

Make sure you set Yes under "Update all content types inheriting from this type" for the Task Outcome field. After that, create a 2013 workflow again, it should have this outcome option.

If this issue still exists, you can create a new custom workflow task(SharePoint 2013) content type and create a new TaskOutcome field and set options for the field and then create a 2013 workflow using this custom workflow task content type.
