With boundary events is it possible to do recurring reminder tasks on a process steps till it is complete by the user or a complete event incoming via a message to the process asynchronously.

can no. Of these reminders be configurable to be like bill pay applications for online banking have as an example or like google calendar reminders?

One time
Recuriing evry n duration
Duration can be hrs, days, month
Etc

Thank you

Thats currently not possible out of the box, since we havent got timer start events/ intermediate timer event yet.
Current workaround is to use Quartz for example.

Any sample documentation to do the workaround?  Thanks

Not in our documentation.

But http://www.quartz-scheduler.org/docs/index.html gives you all the pointers you need,

Has this situation changed or is Quartz still the recommended solution?

Thanks
