Open FlowX Designer and go to the Definitions tab.
2
Click on the New process button, using the breadcrumbs from the top-right corner.
3
Add a start node and a parallel gateway node.
4
Create two parallel zones by adding different nodes and link the zones after the parallel gateway node.
5
Add another parallel gateway to merge the two flow branches back into one branch.
6
Add an end node.
When working with parallel gateways, tokens play a critical role in ensuring that the process flow is managed correctly. Here’s an overview of token behavior in parallel gateways:
1
When a process reaches a parallel gateway, the gateway creates child tokens for each branch in the parallel paths. Each path operates independently.
2
Each child token advances through its respective path independently, proceeding from one node to the next based on the sequence and actions defined in the process.
3
A closing parallel gateway node is used to merge parallel paths back into a single flow. The parent token waits at this closing gateway until all child tokens have completed their respective paths.
