How does Appian determine which Task to show after an AND Node?

I have a process with a task for a user that leads to an AND node.  Each flow off the AND node has another task.  All tasks are assigned to the same user and every flow line is chained.

How does Appian determine which task after the AND node to show to the user?

  • I can't answer with 100% certainty, but I imagine that the task which displays is arbitrary according to whichever node is reached first.

    Assuming that the underlying problem is that you want the interfaces to execute in order, you could remove the and gate and put the UI tasks in whichever order they are to be shown to the user.

    If there are system tasks in the forked process flows that you want to be in parallel, you can join the flows, after completion of those tasks, at a complex gateway that requires n incoming flows to complete before continuing.
