Here you can create task not update. If want to update there should be existing task.

To achieve use below Process builder:

Create one process builder.
Select Object as Order.
Select No Criteria.
Add immediate action as below:
                                                              Action Type =Create Record
                                                              Give any action name
                                                              Select RecordType=Task
                                                              Set All Field values of task and add one row.
                                                              In Field select Price,Type=FieldReference,Value=[Order].Price and SAVE.

Use this process builder and let me know is it helpful.

Hi Akshay,

You can not achieve this by workflow .Here you need to use Process builder as below:
  1. Create one process
  2. Select Object as Product.
  3. Add criteria as Order Price = 100.
  4. Add immediate action as below:
                                                              Action Type =Update Record
                                                              Give any action name
                                                              Select RecordType=[Account].Task
                                                              Select No criteria
                                                              In update box set as Field as Price = 100 and SAVE it.

Use this process builder and let me know is it helpful.

You can just creatre task not to update the field on task by workflow. Use process builder for this.
