The following code provides an example of the .bpel file after design completion. The if activity has if, elseif, and else branches defined. The first branch to evaluate to true is executed.

<sequence>
  <!-- receive input from requester -->
    <receive name="receiveInput" partnerLink="client" portType="tns:Test"
        operation="process" variable="input" createInstance="yes"/>
    <!-- assign default value -->
    <assign>
      <copy>
        <from>'Value is greater than zero'</from>
        <to>$output.payload</to>
      </copy>
    <assign>
      <copy>
        <from>'Value is greater than zero'</from>
        <to>$output.payload</to>
