What is the difference between And Or Xor Gateways?

Question

Anybody Can Explain?

Shanmukha · Answer

XOR: 
 This gateway is used to bifercate the flow. It is actually if else condition where we need to write the conditions inside that. For instance if you want to run flow something like, In the insurance claim flow, if the claim amount iin between 500 and 1000 dollers then you want to handover it to manger for approval, if the amount is more than 1000 then you want to send them to the another level then you can mention this conditons in the XOR Gate. 
 OR: 
 This gateway is used to bifercate the flow into multiple flows based on the condition. It is actually multiple if conditions. At a time multiple conditions will statisfy and can trigger different parallal flows. 
 AND: 
 If you want ot distribute a flow with no conditions . For instance at a time you want to do three paralal tasks like insert a record in the database, sending an email to customer, post an even to the news feed. All these can be done at the same time then you can use AND gate. 
 AND gate can be used in two ways. 
 1) Running parallal task 
 2) Combining multiple flows in the process model into one single flow. 
 
 You can get detailed description in the Appian documentation. Thanks this may help

Hi, 
 
OR: This gateway is used for One or more path can enter based on the condition. If the condition is true then only the path will be executed. 
XOR: XOR gateway is similar to OR gateway but it only have one out going flow. In brief, Multiple incoming paths but single outgoing path.

XOR means 
 if(condition) 
 { 
 } 
 else if( condition) 
 { 
 } 
 else if(condition) 
 { 
 ] 
 else 
 { 
 }

OR gate: - 
 if(condition) 
 { 
 } 
 if(condition) 
 { 
 } 
 if(condition) 
 { 
 } 
 no else
