Working with Go to (End of Action/Routine) Process
Process Purpose
The Go to process is used to redirect the application to pre-established destinations after the execution of an event, another process or as a result of previously specified criteria.
Since it is one of the most used processes, there are, usually, quick links at your disposal throughout the project.
MCL-Designer V4 provides you with a Go to with a specific destination - the Go to End of Action/Routine process - which is always used after having called a routine/procedure/event(action) with a Go to process.
This process is used to redirect the workflow to the end of that routine/procedure/event (action). This means the workflow will continue in the process that called it.
When you add a process, you are required to define its settings. This occurs in the process's properties window which is displayed automatically after having added the Go to process.
If any subsequent edition is required, double-click the process to open its properties window and enter the necessary modifications.
