Controlling the order of events in a blueprint

Controlling the order of events in a blueprint

I have a blueprint that send an email (from a template in zoho desk) to the user.    The template uses the value from a custom field that is set during save via a workflow rule, also in the blueprint (both are in the "After" section of the transition)   My problem is that the email gets sent before the custom function fires so the placeholder for the custom field in the template does not resolved.    How do I solve this?
