Multiple Intermediate Throw Event
A Multiple Intermediate Throw Event throws several event types simultaneously during process execution. It can send messages, signals, and escalations in a single throw action.
What is a Multiple Intermediate Throw Event?
A Multiple Intermediate Throw Event throws multiple event types at once. In a single action, it can broadcast signals, send messages, and raise escalations-all the throwing types combined.
Visual Representation
The event shows a double-line circle containing a filled pentagon. The filled shape indicates throwing direction; the pentagon represents multiple event types.
Key Characteristics
- Combined throwing: Sends multiple event types simultaneously
- All triggers fire: Unlike catch events, all defined throws execute
- Mixed types: Can combine message, signal, escalation throws
- Compact notation: Cleaner than multiple sequential throw events
Common Use Cases
Broadcast and Notify
Simultaneously signal system-wide state change and message specific dependent processes.
Multi-Channel Alert
Throw both escalation to internal handlers and message to external notification systems.
