Fill PDF as part of a conditional Parallel

Workflow Forms
Updated June 12, 2015
asked on June 12, 2015

I'm using a Conditional Parallel to fill out check boxes for a form. As I'm testing I notice that when multiple check boxes are selected on my form, the resulting workflow indicates that it completed both steps however the form does not show all of the check boxes as marked.

 

Any ideas as to what is going on? Should I remove the conditional parallel and make this a linear process with multiple conditional decisions? Would a simple delay solve the issue?

You could do it with conditional sequences, but what I would recommend even more is that you fill in a set of new temporary tokens at the top of your workflow with each of your values, and then at the end of your workflow fill in the PDF only once with that set of token values you modified in your decision trees. This will speed up the workflow quite a bit too and make it so if you modify the form you don't have to change it in all the spots you have a Fill Out PDF activity.

The activities are not writing in parallel to the same PDF. They are separately setting the PDF and the values you specified. Whichever activity runs last (there is a slight time difference since you can't have two things writing to a LF document at the same time) wins.
