New Item in Sharepoint Designer fires Create AND U

[jensmurer]

Hi,

I'm running into a phenomenon when creating a new item in a library by SharePoint Designer:

Setup:
* List A has a workflow with a "New Item in Library B"-action. Into this action I'm filling a few fields for the new item in Library B.
* List B has a workflow firing on creation of a new item and doing something with the field values the first workflow should fill.

Result:
For a few days now I'm getting errors because the fields are not filled.

I cannot explain this other than that the SharePoint designer does not create an item instance, fills the metadata and creates the item in the library, but creates the item (thus firing the second workflow) and then updates the field values into this new item.
Can someone confirm this? Otherwise I'd love to hear what other explanations there could be :)

Because the second workflow is done in Visual Studio I can try to code some lines causing the workflow to wait till the fields are filled (Don't ask me how, I don't know yet other that yet another "Wait"-action ;), but I'd like to know for sure if SharePoint Designer is acting this way.

regards

Jens
