Modifying time based workflows

Hello,

 

I need to deactivate a time based workflow in order to change the time, and then reactivate it. What happens to existing items on the workflow queue? Will they be dequeued and requeued with the new time? Has anyone actually done this in the real world?

 

Cheers,

Hamayoun

From the help:

 

You can deactivate a workflow rule at any time. If the rule has pending actions in the workflow queue, editing the record that triggered the rule removes the pending actions from the queue. If you don't edit the record, the pending actions are processed even though the rule has been deactivated.

 

Hope that helps,
