GATEWAYS: The Truth is in the Models® The order of message

Exclusive Gateway – Split – routes sequence
flow to a precise outgoing branch.
Merge – waits for one incoming branch to
finish before triggering an outgoing flow.
Event-based Gateway – Must be followed by a
catching event(s) or a receiving task(s). Sequence
flow is sent to the subsequent event/task which
happens first.
Parallel Gateway – When splitting sequence flow
– outgoing branches are initiated simultaneously.
When merging parallel branches – the gateway
waits for all incoming branches to finish before
triggering outgoing flow.
Inclusive Gateway – One or more branches
are activated when splitting. All active incoming
branches must complete before merging.
