About Workflow Structures

Workflow Structures are predefined activities that you use to control the execution of the Workflow. They can detect the completion status of the previous activity through their input Transition(s) and fire the next one or more activities as specified for their type.

You must add the number of Structures you need; if you need two Forks, for example, you must add two Forks. You need to be able to distinguish the two Forks from one other when you define the Workflow's Transitions. Therefore, give them unique names; for example, append the name of the preceding activity, such as Program_A_Fork.

Structures can be followed only by unconditional Transitions.

When you create a Workflow, the system automatically adds one Start Structure and one of each End Structure to the Workflow. You must add Transitions to connect the Start Structure to the first Workflow activity and to connect one End-type Structure to the last activity on each branch.
