I have a parent process that spawns several sub processes. I have one end event

I have a parent process that spawns several sub processes. I have one end event in the sub process but the sub process is not terminating at the conclusions of the process. I have a timer that will cancel the process but I would prefer to have the sub process complete naturally. What an I missing? The parent process has an end event with a terminate and it completes after all of the sub processes are cancelled.

How are you cancelling the sub-process? Is it the timer node present in sub-process leading to the same end event? If possible can you attach a snapshot of your process design?

The sub-processes are not terminating since there is an active node (timer) present in it. The process remains active until all active paths in the process arrive at an end event, forum.appian.com/.../End_Event.html.Configuring end event in the sub-process as terminate should solve your problem, since if the flow reaches the terminate node, all active nodes will be skipped and process will be completed.

It was a little more involved but I was able to solve the problem (with a little help from my friends). If anyone is interested I can post the modifications, please let me know.
