use task sequence sub flow option in the pick operator picklist question

I have a question to ask about the "use task sequence sub flow" option in the pick operator picklist:

  1. 1. Does the "use task sequence sub flow" option in the pick operator picklist create a token in the subflow and start running it when the processor calls the operator?

  2. 2. Is the "use task sequence sub flow" option in the pick operator menu synchronized with the order of processing operations, or does processing operations occur first?

1: Yes, for a sub process flow sheet

2: depends more on the rank of nodes in model tree and event list entry.

2. Processing occurs first, then process finished event, then sendtoport, then transportdispatcher is triggered which will fire your subflow.

Sorry. I have one more question. I would like to verify the order of events if both "process time" and "send to port" picklists are set to use sub-flow. What is the overall order of events for the processor in this case?


1. Item comes in, then OnEntry, then pick operator, then setup time, then OnSetupFinish, then pick operator triggers subflow, then process time, then OnProcessFinish, then pick operator triggers subflow again, then send to port, then onExit, item leaves.

No different - the sequence is the same.
