Adding Deadline Branches
The Deadline activity contains two branches by default: a primary branch and a deadline branch. You can add deadline branches.
Note: When the first deadline branch's timeout period passes, the primary branch is canceled. If an additional deadline branch's time out period passes, the previous deadline branch is canceled. Only one branch will ever run at a time.
Note: The left-to-right order in which branches appear in the Designer Pane does not affect the order in which Deadline activity branches run. The primary branch will always run initially and deadline branches will run based on their timeout periods.
To add a deadline branch
- Add the Deadline activity to your workflow definition by dragging it from the Toolbox Pane and dropping it in the Designer Pane.
- Right-click the name of the activity in the Designer Pane.
- Select
