What Alvex version do you use? Alvex had this bug several versions ago, but it was already fixed (http://issues.itdhq.com/browse/ALV-702). If you use the latest version, then please create an issue in Alvex Jira.

Hi,
What happens is the Release To Pool button on the pooled tasks on a specific workflow until some day when it won't but only on that workflow i.e if there sre other workflows with pooled tasks the button will continue to work on those workflows. When that workflow with the broken release to pool is deployed else where the button works fine.

Kind regards
