Does appian have a direct return feature?
for example, the normal process runs this way:requester - checker - verification 1 - verif 2 - verif 3there's a condition named 'direct return", it is when verif 3 do a direct return to verif1, and verif1 do another direct return back to the requester, then when the requester do an approval, the process wont go to checker, but go directly to verif1, and after verif1, it will run directly to verif3 (do not need to go through checker and verif2 anymore?)

Yes. Why not. It totally depends on how you build the process, You can use the combination of startProcess smart service along with the decision to identify which new process to start. For this approach, you will have to build you process in a way that you create a new PM for every step and then connect them using start process smart service.
The kind of logic you are referring to is easily implemented in the interface / process design.
For instance. Using plain SAIL code or a decision you can determine based on what parameters you will choose which path. You can save the result of this into a process variable and let your process flow be decided by this value using an XOR node.
