If you have created tasks in a node and want to move. Its advisable to use endtask() but if its just a wait state then you can safely use signal() otherwise the task will be left hanging although the token has left that node.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 21 Jul 2010 09:06:02 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/endtask-versus-signal/m-p/228834#M181964 bookworm2113 2010-07-21T09:06:02Z
