JR58499: IN THE SERVICE FLOW EDITOR, THE END STATE BINDING IS MARKED AS MISSING ON OUTGOING SEQUENCE FLOWS OF LINKED SERVICE ACTIVITIES

bpm.8600.cf2017.12.delta.repository

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In the web IBM Process Designer, the Service Flow editor shows
  warning markers for sequence flows that are actually correct. An
   outgoing sequence flow from a linked service activity where the
   linked service flow has one end event shows a warning marker
  only to specify an end state binding. This end state binding is
  not necessary for the service flow to work properly.
  
  Specify an end state binding only when the linked service flow
  has multiple end events.
  

Local fix

• To avoid the warning marker, ensure the outgoing sequence flow
  of a linked service has an end state binding.
  

Problem summary

• The warning marker in the Service Flow editor appears for all
  outgoing sequence flows of a linked service activity that do not
   have an end state binding regardless of whether a binding is
  necessary.
  

Problem conclusion

• A fix will be included in a future release of IBM BPM that
  ensures warning markers on outgoing sequence flows of linked
  service activities are displayed only if an end state binding is
   mandatory.
  

Temporary fix

• To avoid the warning marker, ensure the outgoing sequence flow
  of a linked service has an end state binding.
