Submitting form data without completing a task

sergio1

Dear All,

Is it possible to submit form data without completing a task?
I'd like to implement a scenario where a user can do only a part of work connected with the task, saves the partial results and then pick up the task again some time later to continue the work.

Best regards,

Sergio

With the api you can. Look at the taskService. From the explorer I'm not sure. Never use it for complex situations.

I had looked at API before I posted my question and unfortunately couldn't find anything to handle this issue.

The TaskService class has only complete method, and the FormService class has submitTaskFormData method which completes a task.

Please next time mention what you did before. We cannot smell that, nor are we clairvoyant.

But to stick to the topic, Funny, my taskservice has get/setVariable(s)(Local)(……) as well.

Formdata is transformed to variables when submitted, so you can use these methods…

For me it's obvious to check documentation first and only then post questions on a forum – I didn't realize this forum works differently.

But to stick to the topic, process variables turned out to be a good track, although get/setVariable methods should be called on the object of RuntimeService class.
Thanks for your help.

Best regards,

Sergio

It's not that this forum works differently, it's that not everyone is like you say you are and does a lot of homework upfront. Since it is hard to differentiate if someone does not say what he (or she) has done, I usually assume the worse and mostly that is correct.

In other words, not many people do http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#beprecise

But nice to see you are on the right path…
