Timer Boundary Event¶
The Timer Boundary Event is used to listen to a task to create a secondary path when the configured timer condition is met. The task may be terminated depending on whether the timer boundary event is set to be interrupting.
Note
A boundary event must be attached to a User Task and can have only one outgoing path.
Properties¶
The following table describes the properties of the event.
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Event Type | Define if the event is interrupting or non-interrupting. An interrupting event will stop the associated task, whereas a non-interrupting event will allow the associated task to continue and the process to flow through both primary and secondary paths. |
| Timer Type | Specify when the secondary path is activated. You can activate the secondary path at a specific date and time, after a duration has elapsed, or at scheduled time slots. |
| Other timer properties | Specify the timer details and the range of recurrence, if applicable. If the timer is configured to recur, the secondary path will be activated each time the timer is triggered. |
