Does every path in an activity diagram need to have a finish node? A similar question is does every fork branch need to be merged?
I did an activity diagram (below), but it seems wrong. Some branches (from fork) has no finish node (nor end in a merge).
My idea was the clerk will send shipment packing slip to purchashing, accounting & customer. 2 of which just seem to create/init objects (eg. enter info). They are executed in parallel so I felt I should have a fork?
Yes. But there are two kinds of finish node:
ActivityFinalandFlowFinal. You need to terminate each of the packaging and shipment flows with aFlowFinalnode. See section 12.4 in the spec for details. The symbol is here, the page it’s on is a good reference.No. But it needs to terminate – hence existence of
FlowFinalnode.hth.
