Activity Diagram with repeat and switch-case

Question

Hello!

I try to create a Activity Diagram which should looks like this at the end:


I tried with repeat. switch case and labels. like this:
:Create;
repeat :Discussion;
  switch (Decision)
  case (feedback)
    :Update;
  case  (accept)  
    :Merge;
    goto 1
   case  (denied)
    goto 1
  endswitch
repeat while
label 1
:Close;
:Delete;

But it looks horrible!

How can I create such an activity diagram?

Many thanks in advance for your help!

Regards,
J.B.

Hi J.B.

in your context you could try it with a state diagram (image has a link to the source)

With the successive decisions made explicit (so, more clearly structured):

Plantuml-code used

<style>

activityDiagram {

BackgroundColor #lightblue

}

document {

   BackgroundColor transparent

}

  diamond {

    BackgroundColor #white

  }

</style>

:Create;

repeat

:Discussion;

backward:Update;

repeat while (feedback?) is ( yes)

if () then (accept)

:Merge;

else ( denied)

endif

:Close;

:Delete;
