Parallel gateway: Form submitted twice

asked on April 20, 2017 Show version history

I am working on a pretty complex form. When the form is submitted, we ask if there is a change in the employees chain of command. If they mark yes then in the Exclusive Gateway it will send the form to the parallel path. If they mark no then it will go down the next Exclusive Gateway path.

What I am wanting to do is wait until both sequences are done up to the major level THEN send it to the Chief Deputy. I have a separate form created that uses the variables from the new and current chain of commands that combines the 2 forms into one. What is happening is the Chief is receiving 2 forms. And there are 2 forms submitted into the repository.

You need to use a Parallel gateway right before it gets to the Chief. It is referred to as a merge gateway. One thing to note with using a Parallel gateway as a merge gateway, it will require all incoming paths before moving on. So if one of those paths will never happen, you need to account for that.
