"Event Sub-Process" with "Conditional Start Event" does not work

[alexisc]

Hello! I reproduced this on the demo,

"Event Sub-Process" with Event "Conditional Start Event" - does not work
with "Timer Start Event" - works.
Details on the screenshots.
Please tell me: Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

'changed', 'not changed' conditions do not work in sub-process start events.

I understand, thank you!

Workaround. Using a separate Workflow that will broadcast a unique signal when a field is change. A process will listen to that signal to start a sub-process. A signal name can be a concatenation of some name with a record ID.

Yuri, if it's not too much trouble, give an example or describe it in a little more detail.

1. Create a Workflow for Lead. With a trigger 'After record saved'. Add a condition Opportunity Amount > changed.

Add an action "Execute Formula Script" with this script:

$signalName = string\concatenate('leadAmountChanged.', id);

bpm\broadcastSignal($signalName);​​

2. In BPM Flowchart, add an Event Sub-Process. Add Signal Start Event into that sub-process. Specify the signal name for it:

leadAmountChanged.{$id}

Works perfectly! Yuri, thank you very much for your help!
