stop Step

Description:

This is the end of the processing step, giving you complete control. A workflow instance can have many execution end/stop points. For larger workflows with many endpoints, all paths can be joined to the stop step to view what end path the workflow processed. The stop will also ensure that sub-workflow processes are stopped when the parent workflow is completed.
