Question

Process Model Activity Chaining with AND Gate

Hi, 

In my process model, I have a user input task (assigned to group A) then some script tasks and then I have an AND gate with two workflows coming off of it. Both workflows after the AND gate have user input tasks assigned to different groups, one being group A and one group B. 

After the first user input task is completed by group A, then I would like a group A to be directly transitioned to the user task after the AND gate. I have the work flow path from the AND gate to the user input task assigned to group A activity chained but this doesn't do the direct transition.

The other user input task, assigned to group B, after the AND gate doesn't need to directly transition.

Any help is welcomed - thanks in advance!

Hi,

If you are assigning to the different groups better you can have to use XOR gateway. Visual approach is better reach to give the proper answer.

Please post a screenshot of your process model configuration. If I'm assuming correctly that you're saying you want the "group A" task after the AMD gate to be chained into directly by the user who completed the prior step, this should be fine as long as your configuration is proper.

Here is the configuration. When I took away the Group B user input task, it still did not directly chain from the Group A user task to the other Group A user task.

I just tried it in my own simple example and it seems to work fine for me - the user who completes the first task chains straight into the subsequent chained task (even though it's assigned to a group).

What exactly is happening when you try?
