Following is a partial list of the rules that are enforced during workflow validation.
![]() |
Two steps cannot be reached: the step at the lower left is not connected by any route; from the last step on the right, the route goes in the wrong direction so the step could never be reached. |
If you selected "All true conditions" as the outgoing routing for a step (thus specified an AND-split), you must specify a subsequent step in the path as a "Collector Step" (an AND-join) to define a valid workflow. The AND-join step can immediately follow the AND-split step, or there can be one or more steps in between.
![]() |
All three routes from the Split will meet at the Join. |
![]() |
One path from the Split terminates at step A, but the paths with steps B and C proceed to the collector step (Join). Note that at least one path from the Split must go to the Join. |
![]() |
The cycle from step C back to the Split is not valid. Any path from C must pass through the Join. |
![]() |
The cycle from step D to the Join is not valid. To create a valid cycle, the path must first pass through the Split. |
![]() |
The path from step D is not valid because it did not first pass through the Split. |
