Guidelines for successful conditional branching
Number of branches and conditions: A Conditional node is
limited to 12 outbound branches. Each branch can have up to 12
conditions.
Nested branching: Nesting occurs when a Conditional node
directly follows a branch of another Conditional node. You can
have up to two nested Conditional nodes.
Execution sequence: Branches are checked from the top branch
to the bottom. The top branch conditions are checked first. If the
conditions are satisfied, the top branch is taken. Otherwise, the
second branch is checked, and so on. Branch order is defined in
the Conditional Branch Settings dialog.
Number of documents per job: Single document jobs can be
processed by the Conditional Branching node. Multiple document
jobs can be processed only if a Join node precedes the conditional
branch.
Fail branches: A Fail branch can be added to Conditional node.
The Fail branch is not considered part of the Conditional Branch
and is not displayed in the Conditional Branch Settings dialog.
JDF Export: Workflows with a Conditional Branch do not support
JDF Export.
Conditions from more than one category: Different categories
can be combined in one branch. For example, a branch can
contain both PDF and JDF conditions.
