How to handle parallel breakdown using process flow?

Hi Team,

I am working on breakdown logic for the process. I am facing issue when there is parallel breakdown. In this case, token is not restoring in process.

Can you help me to identify the issue?

In this case pull the tokens from the list and put them back onto the list when they are restored.

You can't pre-empt tokens twice - the first context is destroyed if you do that.

Hi @Jason Lightfoot,

I didn't get you completely. Do you mean to push token onto same list after restore context.

Yes - but if you want to stack the time then you'll also need to cater for that too: further delay the active delay token, or queue the breakdown tokens and have a single token created at the start process them one by one.

Ok @Jason Lightfoot. But even in this way, flow is not working as per expectation. Here, token is not restoring its context. I can see breakdown loop is repeating multiple times while pushing to list and token is not restored.

My expectation is to apply breakdown in parallel if it it occurring at same time and it should be pulled by breakdown flow where repair time is higher. The same as we apply to 3D object.

Please find model attached here.
