The **Run for Child** workflow block specifies a secondary workflow to run against each instance of a specified child record related to the current business object. Specify the relationship, Boolean operators, and expressions.
The **OK** exit port in this block is available upon completion of the workflow run against the child record instances, and is not contingent upon its success.

Warning: To avoid circular references, a workflow cannot refer to itself.
