Prioritize streams

Description

Prioritize Streams controls the order in which data is read from multiple input steps. By default, Process Studio reads from all input streams concurrently in an unpredictable order. Use this step when the processing sequence matters — for example, when you need reference data loaded before transaction data, or when one stream must be fully consumed before another begins. You define the priority by ordering step names in a list, with higher-priority steps listed first.

Configurations

Field Name	Description
Step name	Specify the name of the step as it appears in the workflow workspace. This name has to be unique in a single workflow.
Step name priority	This list defines the order in which the input streams will be read. Names at the top of the list have higher priority than steps below. Note: Names have to exactly match incoming steps names, otherwise the step will fail. You may choose the steps from the drop down list.
Get Previous Steps	This button will add the names of all the previous steps to the list. Right click to move rows up and down.
