Instance names in BPDs and processes

Edit online

When the flow of an instance progresses from a parent BPD to a child linked BPD, the instance name changes to reflect the child linked BPD. However, when the flow of an instance progresses from a parent process to a child process, the instance retains the name of the parent process.

For example, when an instance flows from a parent BPD to a child linked BPD, the instance name changes to reflect its child status. However, when the instance flows back to the parent BPD, the instance name changes again to reflect the parent BPD:

Instance Name Test [BPD] (Parent):n
Instance Name Test [BPD] (Child):n
Instance Name Test [BPD] (Parent):n

By comparison, when an instance flows from a parent process to a child process, the instance name remains the same when the instance flows to the child process and then returns to the parent process:

Instance Name Test [Process] (Parent):n
Instance Name Test [Process] (Parent):n
Instance Name Test [Process] (Parent):n
