Behavior is different.</SPAN><BR /><A href="http://www.activiti.org/userguide/#bpmnExclusiveGateway" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.activiti.org/userguide/#bpmnExclusiveGateway</A><BR /><BR /><BLOCKQUOTE class="jive-quote">only one sequence flow is selected when using the exclusive gateway. In case multiple sequence flow have a condition that evaluates to true, the first one defined in the XML (and only that one!) is selected for continuing the process. If no sequence flow can be selected, an exception will be thrown.</BLOCKQUOTE><BR /><SPAN>Regards</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Martin</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 22 May 2014 07:23:37 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/conditional-sequence-flow-execution/m-p/174594#M127724 martin_grofcik 2014-05-22T07:23:37Z
