9 years ago Decision: Events are also classified as Catching (for example, if catching an incoming message starts a process) or Throwing (such as throwing a completion message when a process ends).
Intermediate events representing something that happens between the start and end events.
So an activity event is a 'Catching' Intermediate event because it starts or continues the process triggered by a user interaction (click on the action button). E.g. accept order, decline order.... . The users action is what we need to 'catch' to continue our process flow.
