Could you elaborate a bit more about the functionality you are looking for?

Thanks,

Hi, I do not know about igorbelo's use case. But I have something similar. And I'm hoping to find a solution without writing code. Forgive me for repeat myself from another post:

A task need to be done in 1 day. I have a timer boundary event set to a day. The boundary event is not blocking so user can still work on the task after a day. But when the time is up, I will start to send email to the user that need to work on the task every hour to remind them. That is simply an email task and then goes to a Timer Intermediate Catching Event and then comes back.

What I need to do is stop sending these emails after the user finished the task.

Thanks trademak.
As i replied in ssun's post, i solved this problem attaching a TimerBoundaryEvent to my subprocess.

I just wanted to alert when a subprocess of the process was taken longer than it should.
This alert is executed only once, it's lightly different of ssun's problem, i think he wants to execute it everytime.
