Unbatching or Ungrouping Activities

A previously batched group of entities is unbatched at an activity.

The model used for this example, as well as all of the modeling "how-to" examples, can be found in the ProModel Solutions Café (http://www.promodel.com/solutionscafe/howto/). A video demonstrating this solution can be found here.

Solution

Define a buffer or right-click on an activity and select Buffer. (Alternatively, you can batch in the input or output buffer of a simple activity by clicking on the Batching button in the activity Properties dialog.)
In the buffer Properties dialog, select Unbatch as the Batching Type.

Example

An entity batch of Documents was moved from Review to the input buffer of a Process activity where they are to be unbatched and processed individually.

Solution

Select Unbatch in the Batching type drop down.
