Hi, Would it be possible to give a Scheduled Workflow an actual start date from when it can start running? Would it also be possible to create an option to force a scheduled workflow to start immediately.
This would be really helpful for when developing scheduled workflows as I always have a delay in testing them as well as making sure it starts running at/from the desired date.

I just came upon this post and would like to know if there has been an update. I also would like to see a 'Run Now' option to test the rule. Some of my more complex rules are not running properly and I have to wait a day to test.
John - not sure if you have tried this but it has been helpful for me,
Save your workflow as a custom action, that way you can trigger it on an object and see how it behaves - also, you can add in some notifications to print out details that will give you more insight into its workings.
Would love to see this implemented too!
Hi Michael,
As for setting up a start date, I'd suggest you implement it with the evaluation criteria.
As for starting immediately, I'd suggest you submit a support CR, perhaps for a manual 'Run now' option for scheduled workflow rules. Contact you customer success engineer if you need assistance.
Hope this helps,
Ophir
