What is the problem with this event triggered source?

I don't know what could be the problem. In my opinion the problem is with the OnExiting event. I saw regular OnExit event that I cannot find here. Is there any differnces between this and the OnExit event?

It's hard to tell what the error could be referring to without looking at the entire model.If you can post your model that would be helpful.

What does your Custom Code say within the Object field of the Event Triggered Source? Also you might want to try placing a Label Name in Param1 and under Operation choosing Assign. Without this it will sometimes provide errors and will also allow you to recognize the tokens from that source later in your process flow.

@dam.ggn,

I think you might need to re-evaluate how you're listening to the variable. Normally, the OnExit trigger is fired for an object or activity that has an item or token, respectively, leave/exit it. Now, it seems like you're listening to a Process Flow Variable. A variable doesn't have items or tokens "exiting", as it is just a value.

However, you can listen to the variable "OnChange" or other options, as shown below, but the tokens shouldn't be entering and exiting a Variable. Hope this helps!
