Can we count on DocuWare Workflow processing the various lines of an Assign Data block from top-to-bottom? In the past we were told that we shouldn't count on them being processed in order but in several DocuWorld sessions now I've seen workflow variables being referenced in one of the early lines and then changed in one of the later lines in the same Assign Data block, whereas in the past we were instructed to separate those kind of actions into two Assign Data blocks.

Hi Jon,

do not count to be processed top to bottom. Various performance optimizations might lead to the assignments being processed parallel or even out of order. If you want to make sure, they work one after the other then create several "Assign data" steps.

Related to this, how would you guarantee the order of operations/processes within a Parallel Task?  Creating several Assign Data steps I can see working for single tasks, but I can't wrap my brain around how this would work within a Parallel Task.  Anyone have any ideas?
