Exclusive gateway dialog box

 

Exclusive gateways

An "ExclusiveGateway" is used when a process flow divides into two or more flows.  As the process plays out, only one of these flows is used (XOR).

 

Flows leaving from an ExclusiveGateway are "ConditionalFlows" and "DefaultFlows".

 

The "ExclusiveGateway" dialog box contains two tabs: "Common" and "Parameter".
