XXXXXX REVISE FOR PROCESS MODELER XXXXXXXXXX

A Fork shape in a flow rule represents a point where the flow chooses one of a few different paths of processing based on conditions on the object. The fork shape () appears on the Diagram tab of a flow rule.

You can create two or more connectors leading from the fork shape; each connector has an associated when condition rule or expression that returns true or false.

At runtime, the system evaluates the connectors from the fork shape, in order of decreasing likelihood. Flow processing continues along the first connector that evaluates to True.

Fork shapes are similar to decision shapes, but do not update any property values in the work object. Decision rules include a decision rule that may update a property value.
