Rina, Andy & Ravi,

Thanks for the suggestions.  Using an event wait step seemed to work the
best.  When I tried using a terminating event in the sub-workflow, I
couldn't get it to return control to the main workflow.

Thanks,
Ryan

Hi Ryan

Try defining a terminating event for the said task and the event would
be "Return" event. This would then ensure the open workitems are
automatically completed.

,Hi  Ryan
 why  not to  make  your dynamic parallel  become a member of  a 2-fold
fork that either waits for the  return event  and  in parallel executing
the "parallel" dynamic thing .  to
make  modellig easier   the dynamic is a subflow so  steps  can be added
there to  model the behavior after approval and build a raise  event
step after the return is selected   . 
 thank you

Hi Everyone,
 
I have a scenario (Personnel Change Request in MSS) where I'm using
dynamic parallel processing for a cost center approval step (multiple
cost centers with a different approver assigned to each one).  If any
single cost center approver rejects the work item, an event gets raised
which causes the workflow to end.  That works fine and all work items
are automatically removed from the remaining approver inboxes.  However,
I would also like to be able to send the work item back to the initiator
if any one of the cost center approvers selects "Return".  This would
involve a loop that is waiting for a "Return" event.  My question is how
do I delete the work items from the remaining approvers' inboxes in this
scenario?
 
Thanks for your help,
Ryan
