mixing of process models

[mrbean]

I have a parent sequence file that uses a custom process model (based on the sequentialmodel.seq).  This sequence file, within its Main sequence, calls another sequence that resides in a separate sequence file.  This 'child' sequence file uses the default sequential model.  Is this OK?  Is there any concern with mixing these two process models?

Hi Mrbean,

It's ok. You can run your "parent" sequence file using custom process model, and call your "child" sequence file using a new execution, which specifies the default sequential model. To realize this, you have to change the Execution Options to "Use New Execution" in Step Settings for SequenceCall window, and change the Process Model Option to "Use a specific process model" in Sequence Call Advanced Setting window.

Hi,

Its a bit un-usual having a MainSequence which uses a Process Model call another sequence as a new Execution which also uses a Process Model.

That means the First MainSequence executes, does the PreUUT etc, start running the MainSequence, then somewhere in that execution it launches another MainSequence, which then start PreUUT etc.
