Process tasks

Question

Hi experts,
I apologize for my newbie question. I'd like to know how does OIM select the process task to run. For example if the AD resource is to be provisioned, why does OIM run Create user task and not disable user? and if I want to configure a process task to run when the resource is provisioned, how can I do this?
Thank you

Well that's perfectly OK. By the way let me tell you that you are sharing the name with the forum topper.
Now your question. Well if you see any tasks in the Process Definition then you will find that they are configured as Required for Completion, Conditional etc. So all the tasks for which the Conditional check box is not selected are of type mandatory and they will be invoked when the process is called. So its just the fact that the name is kept as Create User. If you make the task Disable User as non-conditional then even that will be called initially.
So all tasks which you want to run, just create them as non conditional. The other thing is Required for Completion. Say you want that after create user you must assign him a group and then only you want your process to be completed. So you create another task add group and make all these initial tasks as Required for Completion. Now only after all these tasks run successfully at the target, your resource status will become completed.
Thanks
