Are you referring to a workflow or a system event?

Workflow

That depends on the capabilities of the other system. Certainly the workflow is open to any Java code you want to add. The workflow could connect to that system to trigger an action. It can drop an output file to a folder which can be polled by that system. That system can poll Windchill periodically looking for evidence of that workflow task being completed. There are a number of ways. I would start with an expression robot immediately following the task that is completed. Write your code there.

Can you tell me more about how I knew this workfolw  was completed.

Hi @ZL_10908440 

You need to know some admin knowledge.

The workflow is completed if the process ends on the Finish block in the flow. 

If you add an expression robot before last finish block then this will be the point that you know the process has been finished.
