How to define a task that can auto complete when the actorId

[arnoldh]

Hi, every one.

I have a process definetion like this:

Task1 -> Task2 -> Task3 -> .... -> Task10 -> Task11 -> END

I want all the tasks can automatically complete when the token points to one of the task and the actorId of the task instance is null or "". It seems that Decision nodes can help, but it will make the process definetion too complicated and ugly.

So can anyone please tell me how to do, or just provide some threads for me to follow...

Thanks a lot!

Hi,

I think the best way to achieve this is to create your own BPM action.
This will be attached to nodes as either node-enter event or to task as task-create event.
In such case you will find out the task (node) you are positioned on and call the end method on it if your conditions are fullfilled.

You should also consider using proper attribute values for signal on task-node and blocking, signalling on task itself
