APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • In a correct BPMN process, a timeout event on an activity is
    always connected to a follow-on node. If this connection
    is missing, the BPMN model is invalid. In BPM 8.0.0, a
    validation has been introduced to reject such invalid models.
    This APAR will remove the validation again.
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • Problem Description:
    A TeamWorksException is thrown stating 'no outgoing sequence
    flows are defined or all sequence flow conditions evaluated to
    "false".'
    
    
    Problem Summary:
    Timeout events on activities must be connected to other nodes.
    If these connectors are missing, the BPMN model is invalid.
    Thus, BPM 8.0.1 will throw an exception.
    However, in BPM 7.5.x, the missing connectors causes the timeout
    event to be ignored.
    
    
    Problem Conclusion:
    With this fix, the timeout event is ignored again if the
    connector is missing.
