What is Join Time-out?

When you create a join condition (a condition with two or more publishable document types), you need to specify a join time-out. A join time-out specifies how long the Integration Server waits for the other documents in the join condition. The Integration Server uses the join time-out period to avoid deadlock situations (such as waiting for a document that never arrives) and to avoid duplicate service invocation.The Integration Server starts the join time-out period when it pulls the first document that satisfies the join condition from the trigger queue.
