Hey, how are you?

I saw you are using a different way to get and set variables values than I use.

The way I do that is like this:

execution.setVariable('wf_reviewOutcome', task.getVariable('csigwf_reviseOutcome'));

while you use:
execution.setVariable('alvexwfat_velophaseid', task.getVariableLocal('alvexwfat_velophaseid'));

The difference are on getVariable and getVariableLocal calls.

And to set the task property on the create listener, I use this:

task.description = comentarioRevisor;

At least for ootb task properties, it works well.

Another sample code I've just found on another project:

task.setVariable('wfcv_localizacao', getLocalizacao(bpm_package));

In this case, it's a custom property, and on this case, I use setVariable again, not setVariableLocal.

Try these changes and let me know if they solved your problem.

Hi douglascrp,

Thanks for your reply.
"task.getVariable" worked but in order to set a variable value i get "field not available in model" error IF i use it as "task.<field-name>".
Only "task.setVariable" worked.

I am using alfresco 4.2-f

Thanks

Is is working or not?
