|
Intent |
To query an already executing process instance. |
|
Motivation |
Based on the process status or business logic, there are requirements to query an already running process for varied information. |
|
Applicability |
When a query event occurs, the regular flow of the process will be interrupted and the query event subprocess will execute in parallel with the main BPMN process. |
|
Implementation |
We can use the event subprocess to query an existing process without even interrupting the main process, and both the main process and the query event subprocess will run in parallel. A new token is created for the query event subprocess. |

Known issues |

|
Known solution |
Correlation. |
