This is what i'm trying:

The process starts by assigning a task to a particular actor(in this case it is ADMIN). Now based on the business logic the ADMIN may require approval from one or more actors(here it is PROJECTLEADS).

So a single task for the ADMIN has to be split into multiple tasks and assigned to LEADS.

My exact problem statement goes like this:

A user can request for one or more projects when he registers. This request is assigned to the ADMIN as a single task. The ADMIN has to assign the task to the LEADS of these projects. There can be multiple LEADS for each project. So Project1 should be assigned to concerned LEADS and Project2 to its concerned LEADS and so on.

This may sound wierd as i'm trying to use the features of jBPM.

How can i model the process-definition?

Thanks

As u said i used the ForEachForkHandler and it works for a particular case.
This is my process definition file

<task-node name="assign-to-admin">
 <task name="for-approval" description="team member creation request">
 <assignment pooled-actors="user1"/>
 </task>
 <transition name="does user need lead approval" to="foreachfork">
 <action class="com.techm.gisv.osl.cvsportal.actions.AdminAction"/>
 </transition>
</task-node>

<node name="foreachfork">
 <action class="com.techm.gisv.osl.cvsportal.actions.ForEachForkHandler" config-type="bean">
 <list>projects1</list>
 <as>project</as>
 </action>
 <transition name="assign" to="user-needs-lead-approval">
 </transition>
</node>

<decision name="user-needs-lead-approval" expression="#{workflow.isUserDev}">
 <transition name="yes" to="assign-to-tech-lead">
 <action class="com.techm.gisv.osl.cvsportal.actions.ActorAction"/>
 </transition>
 <transition name="no" to="action"/>
</decision>

<task-node name="assign-to-tech-lead">
 <task name="for-approval" description="team lead creation request">
 <assignment pooled-actors="#{pooledActors.pooledActor}"/>
 </task>
 <transition name="approved and assigned back to admin" to="assign-admin">
 <action class="com.techm.gisv.osl.cvsportal.actions.LeadAction"/>
 </transition>
</task-node>

I am trying to split a single process into multiple process using ForEachForkHandler

In this case a single task for the ADMIN is split into two or more tasks and assigned to more than one actor(LEADS). In the task list for LEADS none of the attributes of the parent process is visible in the child process.

Should i manually copy these values to the next process and if yes how can this be done? or is it available in any of the contexts?

Thanks

I have created those variables in a stateful session bean.
From this class i am triggering the process definition
In the process definition from the start state, the transition occurs to assign-to-admin
