This article covers the unexpected 'YOUR FLOW FINISHED' screen that appears when completing Data Capture Flows from work steps in the Field Service Mobile App. It does NOT cover Field Service Mobile Flow behavior, desktop Data Capture Flow execution, or other flow completion issues unrelated to the manual work step status setting.
Salesforce Field Service allows administrators to configure Data Capture Flows as Action Definitions on work steps. When technicians complete these flows in the Field Service Mobile App, a confirmation screen displaying 'YOUR FLOW FINISHED' may appear unexpectedly.
This screen does not appear when:
- Running the same Data Capture Flow from the desktop interface
- Using a Field Service Mobile Flow instead of a Data Capture Flow
- The 'Manually update a work step's status when flows are launched' setting is disabled
- A screen with the message `YOUR FLOW FINISHED` appears after completing a Data Capture Flow from a work step in the Field Service Mobile App
- The flow does not close automatically after completion
- The same Data Capture Flow completes without this screen when run from desktop
- Field Service Mobile Flows configured on the same work steps do not display this screen
This behavior is working as designed. When the setting 'Manually update a work step's status when flows are launched' is enabled in Work Plan Settings, Data Capture Flows do not automatically close after completion. Instead, the 'YOUR FLOW FINISHED' confirmation screen is displayed, allowing the technician to manually update the work step status.
This setting is located in Setup under Work Plan Settings and affects how flows launched from work steps behave in the Field Service Mobile App.
To prevent the 'YOUR FLOW FINISHED' screen from appearing, disable the manual status update setting:
1. Navigate to Setup.
2. Enter `Work Plan Settings` in the Quick Find box and select it.
3. Locate the setting 'Manually update a work step's status when flows are launched'.
4. Uncheck (disable) this setting.
5. Save your changes.
After disabling this setting, Data Capture Flows launched from work steps in the Field Service Mobile App close automatically upon completion without displaying the confirmation screen.
Caveats: Disabling this setting means work step status updates automatically when the flow completes. If your business process requires technicians to manually control when work step status changes, you may need to accept the 'YOUR FLOW FINISHED' screen as expected behavior or redesign your work step configuration.
- This setting applies globally to all flows launched from work steps; it cannot be configured per-flow or per-work step.
- If your use case requires manual work step status updates, the 'YOUR FLOW FINISHED' screen cannot be suppressed while keeping that functionality.
