Add a third parallel task

Packing and labeling happen in parallel — but what about generating the invoice? That can also happen at the same time, independently.

Let's add a third parallel path to the process.

What to do

  • Drag a new task from the palette onto the canvas
  • Position it between the two gateways (above or below the existing tasks)
  • Name it "Generate invoice"

In the next step you'll connect it to both gateways.

> 💡 Parallel gateways can have any number of outgoing paths — three, five, ten. All paths activate simultaneously and the join waits for all of them.
