Hi everyone,

I have following functionality... There is one workflow which is started on the document and will be assigned to one user group. Any member of that group will claim the task for review purpose. He/She will check the document and its properties (in wf task form) and will do following task..

1) If all the document and properties are upto the mark - Task will be completed and will be sent to the next user in the wf hierarchy.

2) If any of the property is missing or not upto the mark - He/She will assign that task to some other usergroup from wf task form, where member from that newly assigned group will fill properties in the wf task form.

How can I achieve 2nd flow ?

Thanks

Hello,

In the platform side you need to extend the workflow content model of the task in which you want to select the group to add a new association with a cm:authorityContainer to store the approver.

            <associations>
                <association name="scwf:grouprevisor">
                    <source>
                        <mandatory>false</mandatory>
                        <many>false</many>
                    </source>
                    <target>
                        <class>cm:authorityContainer</class>
                        <mandatory>true</mandatory>
                        <many>false</many>
                    </target>
                </association>
            </associations>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

and must change workflow definition asigning the group selected to the task you want:

<userTask .... activiti:candidateGroups="${scwf_grouprevisor.properties.authorityName}" ... >
...
</userTask>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

In the share side you need to change the form for the user task to show the groups selector:

    <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="....">
      <forms>
         <form>
            <field-visibility>
               ...
               <show id="scwf:grouprevisor" />
               ...
            </field-visibility>
            <appearance>
               ....
               <field id="scwf:grouprevisor" label-id="workflow.field.review_group" set="assignee" />
              ....
            </appearance>
         </form>
      </forms>
    </config>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍
