The Or Operator

The Or operator activates exit links when any one of its entry links are activated. The Or operator can also be implemented with a single entry link to enable two or more output links for separate parallel branches.

You do not have to use an Or operator to implement a logical "or" condition in a process. Two or more links entering the same operator behave the same as an Or operator. However, to reduce confusion, and to document the logic in a process, it is recommended that you use an Or operator rather than merging links in an operation. The Name property on an Or operator allows you label the operator and document it in context of the logical sequence of operators in the process.
