Difference between flow and flow action. Can someone explain
***Updated by moderator: Lochan to add Category***
A flow models a business process in your application. It uses graphical shapes and connectors to define a sequence of events. Flows are associated with each step in a stage of a case type. You can edit flows with Process Modeler or Case Designer.
A flow action displays a task to users when they run flows. You can edit flow actions in Process Modeler or Case Designer.
There are two types of flow actions:
Connector — Completes the current assignment and advances the flow to the next shape in the sequence.
Connector flow actions are configured on the line shapes, or connectors, in a flow that exit assignment shapes.
Local — Leaves the current assignment open and does not advance the flow.
Local flow actions are configured on assignment shapes.
