Group Review & Approve Workflow Problem

Hi everyone!I'm using Group Review & Approve Workflow on documents in alfresco. I assign a group of reviewers, who should approve or reject a specific document.I would like to modify the out-of-the-box Workflow, so that every reviewer gets an email when a new task is created and waiting….First

You can get task id as

taskInstance.id.

Regarding your email problem, have you configured the alfresco server rightly?

You've got an extra </action> tag in node "startreview".
Once you fix that, you should start getting emails
(provided that your repository.properties file has been modified to send emails).
Hope this helps!

Check your logs; I've found information there to be helpful when debugging.
Where you have "<transition to="sendemail">" try using "<transition name="" to="sendemail">". There is probably a reason why name is blank in the example parallelreview_group_processdefinition.xml. It could be that the processor does not like it if you omit the "name" attribute.
Also, your <task-node name="review"> does not have a <task> in it and I think there should be. Look closely at parallelreview_group_processdefinition.xml and/or adhoc_processdefinition.xml – these should help you.
