Maintain task sequence

Hi all:

 

I need to start the input tool [usage] after finishing the task of output tool [insert]. insert is inserting records into a db table and I've used that table in the join condition of input tool [usage]. I've used a block to maintain sequence but I'm not sure it'll block the entire part 2 all the time. It seems it'll block Join node till part 1 finishes and not the input tool [usage]. May I know your views pls?

@tanvir_khan,

 

Have you tried to use the label block until done from the crew macro:

Hi @messi007 thanks for you suggestion.

i've performed operation several times and seems the block tool is blocking entire sequence 2 every time it runs which is satisfying my objective. so, happy with my existing workflow so far.

 

thanks!
