Property Description
Generate Copies

Copies of the original instance are created as well as the instances variables are generated at Split time. Then, each copy flows independently until they arrive at the Join activity.

If you need to share the instance variables between the different copies within the Split-Join circuit, then do not select Generate Copies.

If copies are not generated, then the original instance is the one that will hold the instance variables.

If any of the activities within the Split-Join circuit modify the instance variables, the change will be immediately available for all the parallel instances that are flowing.

Note: Not generating copies becomes useful when all the outgoing paths are not modifying instance variables but using the existing information (for example, to update other systems). As you do not need to consolidate data, there is no need to generate additional code in the SPLIT and JOIN nodes. Keep in mind that under this scenario if you do modify the instance variables, the Engine will lock them to update any information.
Generate Events Defines how Auditing Events are generated for the Activity. See Audit Events.
