I went through the documentation on flowable, and wanted to understand one thing.
I have a workflow as follows:
I have multiple sequence flows from the Start Event. Now as per flowable documentation,
After an element is visited during process execution, all outgoing sequence flows will be followed. This means that the default nature of BPMN 2.0 is to be parallel: two outgoing sequence flows will create two separate, parallel paths of execution.
So, these both paths would be executed in parallel, correct?
And if so, the path that finishes first (whether the user takes some action or the timer fires), will ultimately complete the execution of the workflow.
Is my understanding correct?
Also if these sequence flows are achieving the parallel execution of multiple paths, then what specifically extra does parallel gateways offer us ?
