due date of task

[nemesis1]

Hi,

I need to write theoretical duration of task and then it is summed with starting time of task. It will  be the due date of task. How can I succeed this. Is there any way to calculate this with due date field on activiti.

For example:
processing time 1 hour
start time: 12.24
Due date should be 13.24

Thanks

That would be great.

My first thougt about that was to have a Java Task that calculates the due date before the user task is started. But therefore you have to set a Java Task for every task that has a due date. I think it would not be a good idea because of
- high effort
- a complex and nearly unreadable bpmn diagramm

Is there another, easier way to handle this in bpmn / activiti bpm?
