Link Catching Intermediate Event

Description

A Link Catching Intermediate Event provides the capability to connect two sections of a process. You can use this event to either:

• Create looping situations or to avoid long sequence flow lines, as “Off-Page Connectors” to print a Process across multiple pages, or as generic Go To objects within a Process level.
• Catch a link from a Link Throwing Intermediate Event.

You can only use one Link Event for each single Process level, meaning that it cannot link a parent Process with a SubProcess.

A Link Catching Intermediate Event displays either of the following:

• A Link Catching Intermediate Event name if the name is specified.
• A Source property value if the name is unspecified.
