Regarding terminating events in workflows

[Former Member]

Hi,

I know that terminating events are used with asynchronous methods. Can anyone tell me, why do we need to do so????

Thanks and Regards,

As the methods (step) you declare is asynchronous 'dialog', workflow would require some notification that the step is completed in order to proceed further. Terminating event provides this mechanism as well you can pass the result of the step via terminating event back to the workflow..

Hi

Check the links below

Workflow automates the steps and activities in a business process according to predefined procedures and rules.

Workflow presents information and documents to the appropriate knowledge worker or agent (another entity such as a program) to make a decision or perform an activity.

Workflow tracks each and every step in the process flow and maintains an ongoing status.

Workflow also collects and reports all of the metrics associated with the execution and completion of the process.

As the methods (step) you declare is asynchronous 'dialog', workflow would require some notification that the step is completed in order to proceed further. Terminating event provides this mechanism as well you can pass the result of the step via terminating event back to the workflow..
