This template contains several pre-made containers, as follows:

## Data Input Sequence

This container is connected to the **Start** node and is meant to hold all the activities related to retrieving the data necessary for running the project. The read transaction parameters are stored in the predefined `NewTransaction` variable of type `Boolean`.

## Flow Decision

The **Flow Decision** activity is meant to analyze the data that was retrieved based on the condition represented by the data stored under the `NewTransaction`. The **True** branch of the Flow Decision leads to the **Transaction Processing Flowchart**, while the **False** branch leads to the **End Process Sequence**.

## Transaction Processing Flowchart

* a **Transaction Processing Flowchart** that processes the transaction items and then loops back to the initial **Data Input Sequence**.
* an **End Process Sequence** which is meant to contain all steps that must be taken at the end of an automation process, such as saving the workflow.
  :::note
  Please take into consideration that whenever you wish to copy a large number of activities from one sequence to another, it is recommended to scroll down to the bottom of the **Designer** panel beforehand. This is due to a Windows Workflow Foundation limitation.
