Hi,

I’m trying to define a custom WF with its custom task model for the Workdesk environment. I followed the HR Vacation Approval demo, but my process is not working correctly.

The initiator starts the WF with the attached document, but when the second user (reviewer) clicks on the Case Management master plugin in Workdesk even the task list is not generated, and he gets this error message:

Error: Could not get class for task instance!

If the same user is logged in to Share, he can see/start this custom task in which the custom properties are also displayed.

I do not understand why Workdesk cannot recognize my custom task model.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Workdesk version: 4.1.1.1. Trial

Hi mokus16,

I don´t know the HR vacation approval demo you are talking about, but the error message is clear. The object class D:sldcmwf:contractReviewTask does not exist.

Did you use this class somewhere in your owplugins.xml configurations, especially in the Case Management plugin? I can´t think of any other reason why Share would display the tasks and Workdesk wouldn´t. In fact, both are retreiving the same objects from the Activiti API.

You could also attach your owplugins.xml and your owbootstrap.xml config files if you want me to have a look here.

Best regards,
deko
