Clarity

I have a process in clarity with 2 very simple steps.  The process flow diagram appears correctly as seen below.  However, when it executes, it seems as though the steps are executing simultaneously rather than the set order.  Is this a possibility, and is there a solution?  Can I delay the second step until the first is done? (currently in the first step there is a serial condition that points to the second step)  this process runs in approximately 1 second.  

the start's condition points to remove, remove points to grant, and grant points to finish.

Flow (which looks correct):

1st steps conditional:

I see that the action in your step 1 is Custom script. Can you just verify the completion mode set in action properties? For your use case, it has to be set to synchronous.

By the way, if the process just takes 1 second to complete, how did you arrive at the point that the steps are running simultaneously?

hello, it is set to synchronous.  The outcome of the job leads me to suspect that either they are running at the same time or out of order.  Is there a way to put a delay between them or trace the steps after they are completed?  Maybe it would be better to have two separate processes since it runs every hour, I could set one to run a minute after the other.

From the details you provided so far, I strongly believe that the steps are executing sequentially. I would probably check below:

   -    Query table bpm_run_steps(down to milliseconds) to confirm that the steps are executed in order.

   -    Check the custom scripts. It may happen that step2 is overriding step1 etc

I moved the second step to the "Finish Step" section, and now it is working as planned.
