How to raise a terminating event of a specific work item in a parallell workflow

[viveka.schwartz@implema.se]

Hello Mike,
thank you very much for your fast reply.  I had a look at your question in
June 2003 regarding Multiple terminating events.
 
I forgot to mention in my question that I am using dynamic parallell
processing with a multiline container element which means that all subflow
instances will be based on the same definition.
 
I'll try out proposal two from your answer below.
 
Best regards
Viveka

Hi Viveka,
I've actually asked this question here before and some interesting ideas
came
up - search www.wugarchive.com for:
Multiple terminating events
 
In short:
- put step into a loop and bind data back from the event
- create a subobject which includes the WI ID as its key.
- create a check function for the terminating event
 
One of these may well work for you.
 
Cheers
Mike
