Prioritization of workflow instances

[patrick1]

Hi,

I have the requirement that the same workflow should be executed with different prioritization (like the fast lane at the airport )

In urgent cases the new workflow instance should be executed before all running instance with a lower prioritization.

I search in the documentation and forum and found only the possibility to prioritize the user task.

So, I'm search for a way to prioritize the execution of the hole workflow instance.

As that's a common problem (for example: express vs. normal orders), maybe someone has already solved the problem and give me hint.

Thanks Patrick

Forgot to mention:

Prioritization of user task isn't necessary, Java Service Task will mainly be executed.

Hi Patrick.

You do not need to increase priority of synchronous service tasks - they are executed after user task complete.
Asynchronous tasks (Jobs) does not have priority. I would say that there is no priority needed (in usual cases).
Priority on user task can indicate the user to take the task first.(that's the meaning of fast lane on the airport too)
