BPMN how to model repetable tasks

6.9k views Asked by At

I'm trying to model a task that can be executed more that one time.

Is the only way to do this the one on the figure below?

Is there in a BPMN task an attribute that is used to specify the repeatability of a task??

You can use a loop marker to indicate that a task is repeating.

Alternatively you can mark your activity as being multi-instance. There's a sequential variant:

sequential multi-instance

And also a parallel variant:

parallel multi-instance

If you have a specific termination condition for your loop, i.e. something more specific than "Completed?", you might want to go with your original diagram to make the termination condition clear. See here for more info.
