The Wait activity node

The Wait node lets you add a wait time to a process. During the wait period, the process completely stops. This releases the working thread and allows the resource to be used for another process.

This node is intended to be used in situations where it is predictable that a process will not be able to process during a specific timeframe. For example, if you want a process that requires action from staff who only work weekdays, you could add a wait time to start at the end of the workday on Friday and resume at the start of the workday on Monday.

Wait times can be managed by administrators through the Process Server Administrator.
