Fields
LabelTypeDescriptionMandatory
Activity NamePDT_ACTIVITY_NAMEThe unique name of the activity.Yes
CategoryPDT_ACTIVITY_CATEGORYThe category of the activity.No
TypePDT_ACTIVITY_TYPEThe type of the activity. There are nine activity types: start, end, automatic, manual, event wait, route, subflow, loop, and decision. Yes
Parallel Activity TypePDT_PARALLEL_ACTIVITY_TYPEIf the activity type is parallel, this field describes the type of activity that will be wrapped by the parallel activity i.e. Manual or Decision.No
Split TypePDT_ACTIVITY_SPLIT_TYPEThe type of split used for outgoing transitions is either NONE, Parallel (AND), or Choice (XOR). A NONE split type indicates that there is only one transition from this activity to the next activity. For Parallel and Choice split types, there can be multiple transitions. With a Parallel split type, the transitions will run parallel to each other. The Workflow Engine will determine which of these transitions are true, and then execute the activities whose transitions are true at the same time. With a Choice split type, the Workflow Engine will determine the first transition which is true and execute only one activity based on this determination.No
Join TypePDT_ACTIVITY_JOIN_TYPEThe type of join used for incoming transitions is either NONE, Parallel (AND), or Choice (XOR). The reason these are the same as the split types is because each outgoing transition must have a corresponding incoming transition (of the same type) that resolves the transition path. No
