Three dots icon in process transition

Process Modeling

Hello VC experts

This is the flow in this layout. In the Process Flow Editor panel, the … icons are there; I’m not sure what does that icon mean. Does it affect the flow?

Process #1 goes to Process #2 only.

Process #3 goes to Process #4 only.

It just means there are multiple possible transitions between those flow steps because a product can do any of these depending on what is first available:

  • Process 1 → Process 2
  • Process 1 → Process 4
  • Process 3 → Process 2
  • Process 3 → Process 4

The … icon itself usually means “more than one different transport controller can be used”. Based on your screenshot you only have interpolation transport in this case, though.

Hi TSy

Thanks for your explanation. But in my case, the connection is only:

Process #1 goes to Process #2.

Process #3 goes to Process #4.

So, even there are …icon, but the production will not go:

  • Process 1 → Process 4

  • Process 3 → Process 2

Is it correct?
