Conditions

This tab is available only if the task is set to Split, and the Split Type is Exclusive or. The column 'Name' gives the name of each branch first link that depends on the choice task. The name must be defined and can be modified by clicking the @ symbol on the link in design mode.

'Name' column is empty if no branch has been named on Process Screen (see above). You must fill in the condition for each branch that will let the process go on with each task of the branch. For instance:

• Link 1: status != "Error" or "${status} !"= "Error": it defines a branch that is executed if variable status is different from value "Error"
• Link 2: value < 200 && status = "Success" or ${value}< 200 && "${status}" = "Success": it defines a branch that is executed if variable "status" is equal to "Success" and variable "value" is stricly lower than 200.
• Link 3: default: it defines a branch that is executed whenever no other branch has a matching condition.

One of the branches' condition must be set to "default".

For more information on the different conditions' possibilities, please see the Freemarker API.
