considering this: "I need to pass multiple assignees in a task"

I understand you want to have a UserTask (t1) which should be assigned to multiple users (u1, u2, u3)
now I ask you: What do you expect to see in my tasks of each assigned user and what's happening when one of these users will complete the task?

maybe the current "candidate users" implementation does satisfy your needs ?

Hi, thank you for your reply but I found the "mistake" - if that can be classified as a mistake. Apparently I shouldn't initialize all the other aspect associations at the beginning of the subprocess ( inside an extensionElements tag) - I was setting them to be empty like this
<code>
extension.setVariable('swf_subAssignees2','');
…………..
</code>
So when I tried the code without that piece of code it worked as it should. I have no idea why would this happen.
Maybe somebody knows why this occurs?
