ORDER OF EXECUTION OF COMPONENTS

Good Day. If you look at the attached workflow, then it should run in order from top to bottom.

 

Rather what is happening is the below components of top container executes first:

Then it straight goes to the bottom most container to execute it completely. The problem here is the step before this has not run. The file in last step uses the old input and this messes up what I expected it to do.

Why Alteryx executes on its own? Does it help? Why simple things are so complicated? Made for a purpose?

I expected it to run from top to bottom and all these days it has been running on its own

it is extremely disappointing that there is not some sort of solution to this yet!

 


There is. Designer 2023.1 has Control Containers which allow you to control the order of execution.
