Need detail for the sequence of functions in an activity followed by a condition

Confluence User - 27 Nov, 2019

Apparently I have never completely understood the sequence and timing of an activity followed by a conditional arrow. Please explain the following:

I have this activity

With this transition following

At this point it is active but open.not_running.not_started

But clearly from the Monitor the condition, proceedOrCancel = Proceed, is satisfied

So why is it stopped here?

Thanks so much, Bill

Hi, can you provide a screenshot of the process? or better yet sample app to try?

Hi, from the information provided it seems correct. The "Look for Proceed" activity is not stopped. It has been assigned to user "admin" and has not been started yet hence the state "open.not_running.not_started". Once the user completes the task then the state will change to "closed.completed"

Thanks, Anders!

I now believe that I see that the proper way to handle this is to check for the variable after a route and not an Activity since there is no user interaction/completion required between the two.

I have one more somewhat related issue. In the same app I have this Subflow:

Used in this manner:

All actions including the Subprocess execute. However the After Session 1 Subflow completes and I never get to Apiant POST Subflow 2 via the 2 minute delay deadline exception.

What might I be missing here? Thanks!

You could try adding an activity after After Session 1 Subflow. I am not sure that you can trigger a deadline exception directly from a subflow.
