How to model an error message without ending the activity process in an activity diagram with UML

Question

I am making an UML activity diagram. Now i have a situation that i have an Active and a Passive status within my data. The process needs to check the statusses and when there is a Passive status it should send an error message but also needs to continu with checking the data for both active and passive records.

So the maintenance team needs to be aware that there is data with status = passive but the process needs to continue 2/3 steps where data for both passive and active needs to be checked. After that 3th process only the active status needs to be checked further on.

How do i model this? Is it ok to use the activity final node? Or means that final node that the passive status will not be taken further in the process?

Thanks!
