After Elsa 3.1.3 designer process node approval rejection, should the process return to the previous node or the original node?

To determine whether the process should return to the previous node or the original node after an approval or rejection in Elsa 3.1.3 designer, it would depend on the specific requirements of the workflow you are designing. Elsa workflows are highly customizable, and you can configure them to behave in various ways based on the logic you implement.

If your workflow requires that after a rejection the process should return to the previous node for re-evaluation or correction, you would set up your workflow to transition back to that specific node. On the other hand, if the process should return to the original node (perhaps the start of the workflow or a specific checkpoint), you would configure the workflow to move back to that node instead.

In Elsa 3, you can use activities such as "SignalReceived" to wait for approval or rejection signals, and then use conditional logic or JavaScript expressions to determine the next step, which could include moving back to a previous or the original node. You can also use "Fork" and "Join" activities to manage complex branching and merging of workflow paths.

Remember to persist the workflow state after each significant step to ensure that you can revert to the correct state when moving back to a previous node.

For more detailed guidance, you may want to refer to the Elsa documentation or seek help from the Elsa community on platforms like GitHub or Stack Overflow.
