How to reuse the sub process more than once in a process definition flowable 6.3.1

Hi
I want to reuse the sub process more than once in my process definition. Is there a way to do it.? Call activity is used only to call the external process which I can’t use. Pls suggest.

Thanks
Esther

Hi Esther,

I would suggest to use call activity. If it is not possible you can always redirect sequence flow back to the sub-process. “Return back” sequence flows make model less readeable.

Regards
Martin
