Automagic Forum

What are the differences among these "action options"? Examples would be very helpful.
What does the choice of SKIP or WAIT imply? When would I choose SKIP vs PARALLEL? What does one choice do that other does not. Again, examples are the gold standard here!
I have read Desmanto's "How workflow handle multiple" post, but I do not follow it well enough to get the idea. Desmanto's post was about triggers. What about flows? Execute Flows?
I know this is important, but I cannot figure out when (if) to use one option vs. another.
Thanks for any help.

Hello Econdoc!

If I have understood you correctly you are about the "flow execution policy" under "Options" in the flows.
At this point, you specify how Automagic behaves when running a flow a second time while it is already running.

I understand this as follows (... and maybe this is even right )
How you control your flows depends entirely on your flows. "Parallel execution ..." or "Stop the currently executing ..." does not occur in my flows.

thanks Peter. excellent answer and very nice graphic.

@Bingwu : It is correct already. Since I have typed it, so I will still post my full answer later. I will include you image above to my own documentation.

@Econdoc : I actually have a longer explanation at our local forum, but in other language. Now I have more example to include, so I will translate and give more example including analogy. Unfortunately even though I have spent last several hours to typed it, still haven't finish yet. I will just post it tomorrow at flow sharing area, as I have included test flow to help to explain the concept.

Finally, it is done. viewtopic.php?f=3&t=6985
Hope it helps.
