please let me know the possibility of this workflow in activiti…

Sure … it is pretty much one of the basic workflows we have in Alfresco.
I'm not going to do your homework for you, but you should look into multi-instance user tasks and exclusive gateways.

we created a sample workflow of that…but the problem is about the activiti designer. our plan is to make a user-friendly UI to edit/create bpmn2.0 xml file. so it will be helpful for the users. Is there any other way to do it without using the activiti designer tool..?

activiti-kickstart is the one which i needed to create my workflow…i got the source from https://github.com/jbarrez/Activiti-KickStart… As of Activiti 5.7, KickStart is no longer part of the ‘official’ Activiti dsitribution… :cry:
hope that activiti-kickstart will helps to make a simple UI…can i use it with activiti5.11…?
please reply…so i can proceed with this one…

It's part of the distribution, it's in activiti-explorer now (as of 5.12, this week released). You can find it when you create a new process-definition, you're able to choose if you want to use the "cull" editor or the "table based" editor. The table-based, that's kickstart…
