Is it possible to create task with multiple groupId constraint?

[thomas.setiabudi]

Hi,

Lets say we have two user grouping tables:

1. UserDepartment -> this table maps user with department like Accounting, Human Resource, or Marketing. sample record would be: (thomas, Accounting)

2. UserJobTitle -> this table maps user with job title like staff, supervisor, or manager. sample record would be: (thomas, Supervisor)

Now, we have a human task in our process, the human task can be done by any Supervisor in Accounting department.

How do we do it?

Based on IRC chat with Maciej: By Default Group Assignment is based on OR operator

The only workaround that I can use for now is to manipulate the group name, concatenate it to one single String like this:

"Accounting|Supervisor"

That works, but it adds more complication as we have more and more group combination, lets say instead of those two groups, we have three more tables.

Any idea?

Is it a good candidate to ask a feature request for this requirement?

Hi Thomas Setiabudi , I'm also facing the same promblem.But there is other which I'm facing i.e how to get tasks by group id by using

TaskClient class

.

Thomas, another idea could be make use of some sort of hierarchical groups, so tasks will be assigned to top level groups let's say AccountingSupervisors which in turn will be composed on lower level groups like accounting and supervisors. Users will be assigned to lower level groups and you provide custom implementation of UserGroupCallback that will be responsible for collecting all top level groups for given user.

Maybe it something that could work for you?

Please open new thread for new questions as it makes difficult to follow if single thread mixes different discussions.

Hi,

Thank you Maciej we will consider that solution.

The situation is more complex since we have many applications, each application maintain their own user grouping in their own Database.

But all these applications uses one JBPM, so when we need to get a user's group task list, we need to get the top level groups from a lot of databases.

will keep trying.
