How to assign hierachical groups from OID, in bpm human task.

Question

Hi,
We have a group in OID like
"cn=MED,cn=Reviewer,cn=NSTIP,cn=STU,cn=KSU,cn=groups,dc=kacst,dc=edu,dc=sa"
and I am tring to assign the group to a human activity using the assignment tab of the human task.
I am using the lookupGroup function under Identiy Service Functions as below
ids:lookupGroup('cn=MED,cn=Reviewer,cn=NSTIP,cn=STU,cn=KSU,cn=groups,dc=kacst,dc=edu,dc=sa')
The human task is not able to assign the user under the group MED present in myrealm and OID.
Please suggest.
Thanks,
Tuku

Hi Dear,
Thanks for your reply.
what you have suggested to use like ids:lookupGroup('MED') ,this is working fine and I had already tested it before, from jdev and aslo from bpm workspace administration link. But here our problem is we are having more then one 'MED' group with different hierachy . so using directly ids:lookupGroup('MED') will be a problem because we dont know which
'MED'group it will be assigned.
Another problem is ,when I am going to search from myrealm (jazn.com) it showing me 3 MED groups (that is present currently in our OID with different hierachy) but not the hierachy, so its also difficult to find out which MED group belongs to which hierachy.
If we can find a solution to ids:lookupGroup('cn=MED,cn=Reviewer,cn=NSTIP,cn=STU,cn=KSU,cn=groups,dc=kacst,dc=edu,dc=sa') then there wont be any confution to assign the actual group.
Regarding your question "Do you get like any error or is it that Task just can't get assigned. Have you tried assiging directly like from EM to make sure that Group and user in this group is all fine."
I am not getting eny error message its just can't get assigned and goes to the end of the bpm process cathing the happy path.
tested the groups using the url http://soahost:soaport/integration/services/IdentityService/identity here is the result.
1 ) For group MED
Result :
<env:Envelope xmlns:env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><env:Header/><env:Body><groupObject xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/bpel/services/IdentityService"><name>MED</name><realmName>jazn.com</realmName><displayName>AGR Tech Grp</displayName><description>Weblogic Admin Group</description><guid>080E537A820740B894307B6A7F97C884</guid><uniqueName>cn=MED,cn=groups,dc=kacst,dc=edu,dc=sa</uniqueName><identitType>group</identitType></groupObject></env:Body></env:Envelope>
we have already 3 MED groups but it gave the result cn=MED,cn=groups,dc=kacst,dc=edu,dc=sa.
2)For 'cn=MED,cn=Reviewer,cn=NSTIP,cn=STU,cn=KSU,cn=groups,dc=kacst,dc=edu,dc=sa'
Result :
<env:Envelope xmlns:env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><env:Header/><env:Body><env:Fault><faultcode>env:env:Receiver</faultcode><faultstring/><faultactor/><detail><identityNotFoundError xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/bpel/services/IdentityService"><faultInfo xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/bpel/services/IdentityService">No Role found matching the criteria</faultInfo></identityNotFoundError></detail></env:Fault></env:Body></env:Envelope>
