Modeling guidelines for sequence flow connections
*For sequence flows that follow an XOR (data-based) gateway or an inclusive gateway, a value must be set for the Condition attribute.
*If the value Expression is set in the Condition attribute, the diamond symbol is to be placed at the beginning of the connection.
*If the Condition attribute is set to Default and the source object is a function, the \ (backslash) character is to be placed as a symbol at the beginning of the connection.
*The \ (backslash) symbol must not be placed if the source object is a gateway.
*No condition should be set if the source object is one of the following symbols:
*Event-based gateway
*Complex gateway
*Parallel gateway
*Start event
*Intermediate event
*If the Default value is enabled in the Condition attribute for a sequence flow connection, no condition must be specified.
*The Condition attribute may be set to Default if the source object is a function or an XOR (data-based) gateway.
*If the value Expression is set in the Condition attribute, the Expression attribute must also be specified.
