Missing activiti:formKey in StartEvent cause userTask to skip?

p792 — Mon, 21 Jul 2014 18:30:02 GMT

if I don't use activiti:formKey="wf:submitAdhocTask" inside startEvent, then the workflow skip addUpdateTask and go straight to ReviewTask. Do anyone know why this happens? I am new to alfrescoThanks,<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><definitions xmlns="http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/201

Hi,

The "activiti:formKey" does not affect the workflow order. The "sequenceFlow" affects the order, and in you workflow, this is correct:

<sequenceFlow id="flow1" sourceRef="alfrescoStartevent1" targetRef="addUpdateTask"></sequenceFlow>
<sequenceFlow id="flow2" sourceRef="addUpdateTask" targetRef="ReviewTask"></sequenceFlow>
<sequenceFlow id="flow3" sourceRef="ReviewTask" targetRef="endevent1"></sequenceFlow>

Maybe you have a confusion, why the "formKey" and "candidateGroup" of the "addUpdateTask" and the "ReviewTask" is the same.

If the problem persist, Can you send more information (i.e.: screenshot)?

Greetings,
Arak.

By default, it takes adhoc task.
No you cannot skip the formkey as it defines the action to be performed.
