Workflow Designer: Conditional vs Routing Decision

Workflow Laserfiche Version 9
Updated August 25, 2014
asked on August 25, 2014

Just as the title says, is there a different between a Conditional Decision and a Routing Decision? They both have the same icon. They both say that they run the FIRST branch that has satisfied conditions, and it seems that you can put any tasks that you want within the branches. So is there any difference? Other than the name (and for organizational purposes), is there any other reason I would use one over the other?

I think that one is meant to be the new way of doing things and the other is more of the old wording for compatibility purposes. As far as I can tell, they are the exact same in terms of function, but you cannot copy and paste from the conditions of one into the conditions of others, which is annoying if you mix the two in different parts of a workflow

Hey Rick,

 

As Kenneth mentioned, functionality wise, the activities are identical.  Check the help file for Routing Decision and you'll notice that it says "Conditional Decision is another name for this activity".
