My favourite.....: Bounded Task Flow and Unbounded Task Flow

Bounded and Unbounded Task Flow

Created two flows Unbounded and Bounded in ADF.

The main difference between the both is that Unbounded can have multiple entry points whereas bounded task flow has a single point entry.

While defining the Bounded task flow we have to define the default activity which is the entry point.

Usually Bounded Task Flow is called from Unbounded Task Flow.

My experience in this matter while testing is that, I created a bounded task flow initially and tried to run and played around with the navigation but it the page wasn't going anywhere so changed it to unbounded task flow and the navigation was working as expected.

The components that I used were

View - This can either be a page fragment or a page itself

Control Flow Case - This is the connection between two views, and it is a vector. There are From Activity ID and To Activity ID attributes which define the direction of the flow

Router - This guides the flow depending on cases. Default Outcome is the attribute used for defaulting the flow.

Task Flow Call - This is used to call other Task Flow (usually a bounded task flow). In the TaskFlow Reference section populate the Document attribute by selecting the bounded task flow document and the ID attribute as well.

Task Flow Return - This is used on the Child Task Flow(bounded) to return to the Parent Task Flow that have called the child task flow.
