Start Parallel Processing
This node can be used when there is a need to invoke more than one stream of processing at the same time. This is commonly used with human tasks that can be assigned and worked on independently, but they must all be completed before the workflow can continue.

Tip
The use of Suspend automations is not recommended within a parallel process. Suspend automations are designed to suspend the entire workflow and not an individual stream within a parallel process.
Settings
Open the settings by clicking on the node and selecting the cog icon or double-click on the node.
Two settings are available:
- Positioning. Lets you change the orientation of the node.
- Size. Change the size to better accommodate the number of streams.

Finish Parallel Processing
Use this node to bring together and finish the individual process streams that had been initiated from a Start Parallel Processing node.
-
The workflow will not progress past this node until all process streams have reached this point.
-
When designing a parallel process it is important to design each stream with a successful path or outcome to reach the Finish Parallel Processing node.
Important
If a human task fails due to an error in one stream, all other tasks within the parallel processing will be canceled.
-
Each stream should be kept separate from other streams. Do not connect one stream to another stream.
Settings
Open the settings by clicking on the node and selecting the cog icon or double-click on the node.
