Save for later option in Global Creation

Question

I have a business case where the user needs to save the form that he is completing for later completion. This has to happen only in the Global Creation activity. Since the instance is not created, how can I store information in ALBPM other than in the database and retrieve it when the user tries to initiate and refill the same form ?
Is there a way to do it in ALBPM where one can identify this SAVE FOR LATER request and re-open the form for completing it later?

Hi,
You can have an activity after the begin with similar form as the global creation activity and make this activity reachable when the user clicks on the 'Save for Later' button (using conditional transition right after the begin)
in this way, if the user decides to submit then...it will go the standard way ...but if clicks on the Save, data will be stored and the activity will be waiting for
the user in his or her inbox.
The bad thing here is that anytime, we save for later, an instance is created...
Hope this helps
