Hi All,
What would you all recommend for implementing a confirmation page after a form is submitted ? another user form ? The only concern I have is that once my user submits the form is a subprocess creating multiple instances (as we need). So basically for the confirmation page we need something along the lines this # of items were created in the system, even better if we can give the ids of the created items.
Any suggestions for a good design implementation?
Thanks in advance

Use a User Input Task after all item-creation subprocesses complete, passing the number and IDs of created items to process variables. Display these on a confirmation page with activity chaining from the form submission to the confirmation screen for seamless user flow.
would this still work even if we are launching the initial form from a site page? they click on the menu name and the form launches.
Yes, it works - activity chaining will still take the user from the form to the confirmation page on the site.
when I try this after it says action is completed it just takes me back to the intial form page. This is the setup for my subprocess
Add a User Input Task right after the MNI node and make sure activity chaining is enabled from the form through the MNI to this confirmation task, so that the user is taken directly to the confirmation page after all items are created.
thats what I currently have, but is still not working.
MNI often breaks activity chaining in because it creates parallel tasks. To fix this, ensure MNI is used only on background nodes, then chain directly to a single User Input Task assigned to the submitting user for confirmation. Avoid gateways or async nodes between MNI and confirmation to maintain the chain.
the MNI is right before the confirmation task in the screenprint I sent
May i know what exactly you are doing in subprocess(Which you are calling as MNI)?
Any attended activity(UIT)?
The subprocess creates # of requests , which is given by the user in the initial form in the start node to this subprocess I'm just passing the number of times it needs to execute and thats all. So if user passes 5, this subprocess would create 5 different instances. The goal is to at the end of the main process to show the user you have created these number of instances, these are the IDs.
Activity chaining will break when you call a subprocess that contains a user input task.I hope your subprocess has UIT which creates # request based on main process input.
no user input task in the subprocess. Just uses data from the main process input.
Can you share same snapshot of subprocess?
Also how you are calling subprocess sync or async?
Can you show snapshot of subprocess nodes?
