Collaborations and concurrent processing

A collaboration begins a processing flow when it is triggered to do so by the arrival of a business object. By default, the collaboration completes the processing of one flow before it processes the flow for the next triggering business object.

However, you can configure a collaboration to process multiple concurrent event-triggered flows. If a collaboration is configured in this way, it will identify any flows that have business object dependencies and process them in order, but it will allow flows that do not have conflicts to process concurrently.
