Try to query for task assigned to the current user from the same process instance as the already completed task. After that you can automatically open it.

Martin thanks for the answer. Glad to know there is a solution. But, i dint exctly understand your answer. What should the query surround? How will the query invoke the next task?

Hi Paul.

(May be I did not understand your question.) I am sure there is a solution (we have implemented it in our products).
From my point of view there are several possibilities (e.g.:
1. task is completed -> request to the server to complete task
2. get next task -> request to the server (query for next user task) and as a response you can get next task form- depends on your form technology.
3. frontend can parse new user task form and display it.
)
