If I am understanding correctly, you want to take a FlowFile coming from one processor and produce multiple copies. Each copy is then sent to different follow-on processors. Correct? This can be accomplished by simply connecting the success relationship multiple times from the single source processor to the multiple destination processors. NiFi will automatically clone the FlowFile when multiple relationships of the same type are connected. What is even better here is that NiFi does not duplicate the content but rather just adds additional pointers to the same content for each replicated FlowFile.
