Parallel Workflow Processing

[Griffiths, Mark]

You have a couple of options:
 
If you know how many people will be involved in the processing then create a
fork, specify the number of branches (and necessary completion branches) and
then insert your task into each parallel branch.
 
If your workflow needs to be a bit more flexible you can use 'dynamic
parallel processing with a multiline container element' found on the 'other'
tab of your step - this enables you to create as many parallel workflows as
you need e.g. for line items on a document.  Of course you need to populate
your multiline container element somewhere, for example by using a container
operation to set it to be equal to a multiline object attribute.
 
Hope this helps,

All
 
I have to create a Parallel Processing Workflow in
QM. Usually Workitems are processed sequentially. In case
I am sending the same workitem to several users the first one who
reserves the Workitem will pull the Workitem out of
everybody’s else InBOX. I have to send Workitems to
Several agents at a time. They have to be able to work on it parallel.
Does anybody know a simple way to create a parallel Process
in Workflow 4.6 ?
