Workflow jumping usertask

magarcia_sm — Thu, 21 May 2015 18:13:29 GMT

Hi thereWe are creating a very simple workflow that has a start event, an userTask of type wf:activityReviewTask and an end event. In the usertask we define a listener by using a script this way: <userTask id="iniciar" name="Revisar JefeDpto" activiti:assignee="gestor" activiti:formKey="wf:activi

Hi,

Please attach you process definition as we cannot track where the issue is with such a snippet of the code. However, you would be far better off defining your own model which its task-types inherit the activiti task model types; in your case the "wf:activitiReviewTask". But then again, more code would be very helpful in order for us to further help you.

As you can see the task to approve the document or not is in the UserTask with id="iniciar", however the workflow runs all the process in a row… not assigning any task to the asignee user neither waiting for anybody to approve or reject the task.

Any ideas please??

Thanks a lot in advance!!

Hi Margacia,

Your startEvent task is missing its formkey like this:

<startEvent id="startevent1" name="Start" activiti:formKey="bpm:startTask"></startEvent>‍

.

I am guessing the engine could not recognize the bpmn as a tasked workflow without that "formKey". That was your mistake.

Hope this helps.

Thank you very much DarkRedd
That was the problem, solved!

Thanks, with your solution, I solved the same problem.

Then, is mandatory to add a form element in the start element of a workflow?

Greetings,
Pablo.

Hi there

We have the same issue, however it is quite strange as we are using the Activitii plugin for Eclipse Keppler, and we use a "Alfresco Start Task" from the pallette of tasks in the right column of the diagram….. strange that this is not already included in the Alfresco Start Task.

Anyway, thanks a lot for your reply, solved me a day of work checking why is not launching my workflow!
