Multiinstance subprocess erroring on boundary condition

[ad1]

I have  the following configuration to kick off multi-instance sub process.

1.Collection = ${execution.getVariable("PAYLOAD")} – this the Payload  variable  at the parent process level.
2. Completion condition = ${nrOfCompletedInstances/nrOfInstances > 0.95}


The Subprocess gets called the number of times as per the collection list, but on the boundary condition it errors out!
For eg: I have 3 items in the collection. The subprocess gets called for 3 times. On the 4th iteration it throws the following error. It should not even be going to the 4th iteration?

Without example process and code to show what you're doing, this is impossible to answer, I'm afraid.

Strange  that it happened only when I had set Collection and  completion condition. I removed both of them and just put in the  Loop Cardinality and everything is good now. It loops exactly the desired number of times
