Description:
If you create a process with a Parallel Split (AND) or a Multiple Choice (OR) condition with four branches that starts on create and then create an object instance and make 4 changes, one at a time, clicking save immediately after each one, the update event is not raised by Clarity each of the four times you click save. The process eventually completes but may take between 10 minutes and 1/2 hour to complete.
Note: This is an intermittent issue. It happens most of the time on the two systems where I have seen the problem.
If you place the same condition(s) in the pre-condition for the following step, the process completes quickly even though too few events are raised.
Steps to Reproduce:
Note: Not enough update events have been raised.
Note: Occasionally one of the processes that have a post condition will succeed if all 4 update events are raised. So if that happens, just try another time.
Expected Results: Four update events should be raised and all three processes will complete immediately.
Actual Results: Between 1 and 3 update events are raised. Only the process with the pre-condition completes immediately. The other two will take a long time (10 - 30 minutes) to complete.
There are three possible workarounds:
