Hello everyone.

Today, I ask you how can I put a decision which say, in ProcessFlow, :

Go 2nd way when Processor1 is busy

Thank you.

In your decision point, you can use a conditional decide with the condition being:

model().find("Your_Processor's_Name").as(Object).attrs.state_current.value==1

@Joshua S

Hello. In my model here, it doesn`t work because :

when token goes in decide with

model().find("Processor1").as(Object).attrs.state_current.value==1

1 : true / 2 : false

But when my processor is busy, my token goes 2nd way whereas, I want my token goes 1st way when my processor is busy and 2nd way zhen my processor is free

Hello Joshua,

I have the same issue and I applied the code you just gave and it actually worked but after 1 loop everything just ends up (false) even if the processor is empty

can you please help me check on it?

Thanks a lot
