I noticed that you are using version 5.19.0. Could you please upgrade to latest version on 5.x branch which is 5.22.0 or or even version 6 and check if it is happening in newer versions. While checking release notes, I can see that in version 5.21 there was a fix stating "It fixes some cases where the end time was not set for activities in a process definition under certain conditions." See Release Activiti 5.21.0 · Activiti/Activiti · GitHub for more details. Hopefully your issue is already addressed in newer versions!
