Hello,

I have a main process which calls multiple sub-processes. Each subprocess has multiple nodes, script tasks and interfaces.
All activities are chained, and I followed the steps here: forum.appian.com/.../Configuring_Activity-Chaining.html

I want all the SAIL interfaces to show a "Go Back" button, even though the interfaces are in different sub-processes. How can I do this?

Thanks in advance,

The "Previous Button" in that context is for Portal forms. For SAIL interfaces you will need to create the button yourself (forum.appian.com/.../SAIL_Components.html. You can set the button up to "submit" the form and pass out a value/flag you can use to route your workflows. In order to "go back" to a parent process, you can utilize XORs to end the sub-process early if the user clicks Previous/Go Back. Once back on the parent process, you can reroute back to the previous interface.

I might also suggest utilizing SAIL to create a step-by-step wizard to cut down on activity chaining. (forum.appian.com/.../SAIL_Recipes.html
