I want to be able to create tokens at multiple destinations with 1 create activity. Obviously I can just add more create activities, but this is not ideal for me (it will require a lot of rework because this a sub flow with many dependencies). I will be setting destinations via a token label. On the same note, I want to be able to set to 1 destination if needed.
So if I could get something like the img attachment that actually works, that would be great.
For 16.2 we will be adding a new activity (Split) that will make this much easier. The Split activity will split the token into multiple tokens and send one out each outgoing connector.
The best way to accomplish this is to add a Decide activity. Have the Create Tokens activity create them on a Decide activity, and then you can determine the different branches from the decide point based on whatever criteria you need.
If you were only creating one child token then you could use the "Activity By Case" pick list option for the destination. As you want to create three tokens with each being in a different activity then you will have to use Sam's approach. In the Create activity you can assign labels to the child tokens. If you use the command "getchildtoken()" with only the reference to the parent token it will return the number of children. In the Create activity this will be the creation rank of the child when used in any of the assign label triggers.
And of course in the Schedule Source activity you can define the quantity of tokens that are created.
