Want user to choose executors for further multiinstance usertasks

bpmn — Mon, 07 Apr 2014 09:00:21 GMT

Hi. I want user in first usertask to choose multiple users as assignees of second multiinstance usertask. Is there a way to do it?Now I can do it by setting a variable in task listener and then use this var for setting assignees like that List<String> approvers = new java.util.Array

Hi,

Good start could be "Employee productivity" process (report) in activiti explorer. There is a form with one user selection.

Regards
Martin

I'm not using activiti explorer. I am using my own form and can pass any type of list from this form, but I do not know how activiti can take it. It seems it can take only String.
Actually, I have already done it by embedding the type of data I need and a name of variable to set into the form property id. Then I am parsing the property id and setting variable with List<String>, then submitting form without exit values. But it looks ugly.

If you use your own forms, better not use the formservice but simply the complete that takes in a hashmap of variables
