BPM 11g Worklist Replace User Selector

Question

Does anyone know of a way to use the BPM 11g Worklist Application but replace the User/Group selector for the assignment actions? We are looking for more of a tree type selector based on Organizations/Roles rather than a flat search.
Thoughts?

Answer 1

Hi,
You add a subprocess. In the subprocess you could loop (like while in BPEL) , according to the loop condition, if the count is 2 or smt. else, you could send the task to other people. You can use a skip rule if the count is 2, skip this human, go to the other one. Whatever you want exactly.
Don't forget to add a deadline to the Human Task. When the task expires, the process will move on to other task in the process.
Edit: Forget expire, expiring the task won't work. I am looking for a better solution now.
Edit2: This shall work. Again use a subprocess. Use a loop condition. Set condition like userActed = 1. First use a script, do something like loopNumber++ . And use a Timer this time, which will start the user task in 1 hour + 1 min. And expire the user task in 1 hour. If the user acts in 1 hour, set userActed = 1, so the subprocess won't loop again. But when it does, you can set your human tasks to act like how you want them to. In the first run, user1 should get the job. In the second run, skip the first and user2 should get the job.
HTH.
