I had to create a workflow on a existing list which has already around 250 items. I need to run the workflow on existing items which don't change.
1. I can use retention , but I dont have CA access to either enable or check the timer jobs related to it.
2. Custom timer job or solution (As this is one time thing I didnt wanted to exhaust my energy)
Solution (Which i thought is useful for me)
Change the workflow initiation to "Run when the item is changed"
create a column with number type
open the lint in "quickview"
add "some number" in all the items in the new column
Click "Stop" on the top of the list.
It will run the workflow on all items one time as you made the change on every item by adding a field value.
Hope this helps someone in need without any extra effort.
