hi there,

It is said in BPT that we need to kill other process instants that is called from one process instant when the second process instant is terminating. Say, process1 call process2:

My question is: 

1. Do we need to create own entity to record that process2 is called from process1? or

2. Is there built-in Outsystems entity that record it?

3. If there is no built-in, where is best to record that relation (process2Id, process1id,..)

4. where is best to terminate the process2 instant?

Thank you.

regards,

M

Hi "M",

What exactly is the behaviour you want to implement? is it something like:

• Process A instance calls sub-process B
• Sub-process B's instance wants to end and also tell Process A's instance to end.

If this is the case, there are two obvious options:

• In Process A, after returning from calling sub-process B you could have a conditional path based on the outcome of Sub-process B it would decide whether to continue or terminate it.
• Alternatively, sub-process B's instance could trigger a conditional start in Process A's instance to terminate it.

Hope this helps

Process B can have output parameters.

Use it to trigger Process A termination using Conditional Path.

hi, 

I mean this scenario :

t0: Process1 launch Process2 then suspends

Process 2 do some activities and then suspends:

t1: Then some event triggers that will terminate all those processes.

My questions are:

1. Is there Outsystems built-in entity that records which processes are relating to Process1?

2. If there isn't, is there a pattern and best practise to do this?

Thank you.

A quick look at underlying tables, no 1 is a yes.

Those tables are exposed in (System)
