More about Flows

When the Creates a new work object? box on the Process tab is selected, the text in the Description field on the flow appears to application users as a work type label. The Description texts appear in the New selection box on the Process Work navigation panel, one for each flow checked.
Enter a Description value that is unique within your application and meaningful to application users.
If your application is to support users in multiple locales, choose a Description text carefully and maintain a list of these text values. When practical, choose a text value already included in a language pack, to simplify later localization. See About the Localization wizard.
When you save a flow, the system converts the rule to Java source code. As a learning or debugging aid, you can review this Java code.
Click the Show Java toolbar button () to see the system-generated Java code that implements the flow processing. The window presents a read-only preview of the Java that implements this rule instance. This Java code is not identical to the Java that executes at runtime, which includes Java code inlined from other rule instances and reflects rules in the requestor's RuleSet list.
A flow execution can loop back to a task completed earlier, either through connector or a ticket. The system enforces maximum limits of 500 executions of a task (on a single work item), to detect and prevent infinite looping. In addition, a flow execution can be resumed (such as through a specific ticket) a maximum of 500 times. If necessary, you can adjust these limits by overriding standard System Settings rules Pega-ProCom.MaxFlowEnteredCount and Pega-ProCom.MaxFlowLoopCount
