XML to Flat File design issue

Question

Hi,
A newbie to SSIS but was able to create an SSIS package which extracts XML data from one of the SQL server columns using "Execute SQL Task" and passes that to a for each loop container which contains an XML task for apply transform to each input
xml and append it to a flat file(additonally using a script task within for each container).
All good so far but now I want to apply conditional splitting to "Execute SQL Task" in the above and additionally pipe it to the exact similar additional process(For each container doing xml task as described above) for a different kind of
flat file.
If I alter the design to use the data flow approach and apply OOTB conditional split, I run into not knowing how to connect and execute more than one  foreach container and embedded XML and script task (dataflow to control flow connection)
It is easy to put everything in a sequence container and repeat the Execute SQL Task . But to me that is very inefficient.
Any creative ideas or pointers to some internet content which tells me how can this be done most efficiently.
Hope my question makes sense and let me know if you need more clarification.
Thanks in advance.

As I understand what you're asking for is a way to create conditional branches to do different typeof processing for each subset of data. For this you can do like below 
1. Add set of tasks to additional processing for each type of flat file and link them to Execute sql task.
2. Make the precedence constraint option as Expression And Constraint for each of them. Make constraint as OnSuccess and expression based on your condition. You may need to create SSIS variables to capture value of fields to be used in expression manipulation.
