WC Workflow Routing Tab - Dynamic AND Connector Handling for Optional Workflow Routes in PTC Windchill

I have a workflow with 4 optional routes, where users can select any combination of the routes during execution. At the end of the workflow, I am using an AND connector because I need the process to continue only after all selected routes are completed.

The issue is that the AND connector waits for all 4 routes to complete, even when only 2 or 3 routes were actually selected.

Has anyone handled a similar requirement in PTC Windchill workflows? I’m looking for the best approach to make the connector wait only for the routes that were chosen by the user.

I’ve also attached a Word document to better explain the workflow scenario and expected behavior.

The post above is very similar to your scenario.

You would need to probably use attributes and then route around the ones you do not want to the AND connector. I do this with one of routings that sends out emails.

Hello @avillanueva,

This post I already seen, but I need more information on this. If possible could you help me on this by using threshold connector.

Hello @AK_13732694 ,

Here are a couple of screenshots of what I use to determine which emails go out. I use an attribute for email and then based off of the conditional it either sends it for email or it skips it. Each conditional is based on the specific email.
