Notifications using Advanced Notification Modules

Question

Hello, 
 I configured some notifications using this module, but I am facing with an "issue". 
 I have a trigger for a certain state to send the notification. My issue is that if some preconditions for the triggering state are not met, so the transition does not finalize succesfully, the notification is still being sent. 
 I want to send the notification when the object actually transitions to the state. 
 Is there a way to overcome this? 
 Regards, 
 Radu

Interesting behavior. A couple of workaround ideas: 
 
 Move the preconditions to be postconditions on the previous state (depends of course on your workflow if this is possible) 
 If the above is not possible, add an extra state to the workflow so that the preconditions are checked in this new intermediate state and there is an automatic transition directly to the "end state" from where the notification should be sent. This way the object doesn't match the notification rule when the preconditions are evaluated.
