Exclude process in multi processor based on a condition

I want to exclude one of the process from the multiprocessor based on a condition. How to implement something like this?Is there any way other than using by case and setting processing time to 0?

Hello @Devdatta D,

From reviewing the documentation about the multiprocessor it seems that you cannot skip a process. You either need to set the process time to 0 like you already mentioned or use several processors to represent the process instead. With the several processor you could accomplish your task in a few ways. One would be to have conditional ports or port by case.

Currently untested: But there might be a counter node to choose next process step. Perhaps you can set a different number to skip a process, but you would probably adjust the event list to update to a new earlier process finish time, too.
