Hello,I have some questions about transaction engine (technical transaction and not business transaction).If there is a process with many automatic tasks, is it possible to have a global technical transaction ? If yes, how it works ? The transaction is given to the next task ?Thank you for your help

Hi Alex,

When you define a global transaction and set the transaction manager on the Activiti Engine configuration, Activiti will run as part of the global transaction. So the Activiti database transaction will only be committed or rollbacked when the global transaction is committed or rollbacked. In the user guide you can find a description about transactions as well.

Best regards,

Thanks for your help.

I think you are talking about ProcessEngineConfiguration bean and org.activiti.engine.impl.cfg.JtaProcessEngineConfiguration ?
