thanks for your quick response but I don't want any approve or reject condition ,i want to check the condition through my custom variable
Ex : if (some variable ==some value ) then goes to some flow else go to some other flow

where some variable is a custom variable

how to do this

Please help me

Thanks in advance

You simply have to put there an EL that resolves either to true or false.

e.g. ${processControl.alternativeFlow}
where alternativeFlow is a boolean property on POJO processControl.
