Recursive Task

Avatar

I have a form that users will enter 0 to many user ID that need to approve the request. I have a workflow that loops through the list of users and sends separate task to each user. I did this with a script task that loops back to itself if there are more users as wells as send the current user a task request.

The issue I have is that I want to wait until all task are completed before moving on to the next task. I have tried to use a subprocess but with no luck, the process continues as soon as the first user take action on the task.



Can you assign multiple people to a task?

Can you pause a process?



Any suggestions?



Thanks

Steve

Adobe has a sample:



// This is the RendezVous task. This task does not complete until an

// action is selected. All the work items created for this task will share the same data.

// Each work item entering this task can merge its data into a general

// pool of data to be distributed to the next task.



// WorkItem.startRendezvous()

// This is to be called in the Task being used as the rendezvous task.

// It indicates to Integrate Agent that the first route of a rendezvous has arrived,

// and that until either WorkItem.cancelRendezvous() is called,

// or an action is selected, new work items created for this task should

// take their data and attachments from the previous work item that was created by this task

// rather than from the previous work item in the process instance, as is usually done.



// WorkItem.cancelRendezvous()

// This can be called if, for one reason or another, the process has decided it

// wants to give up on the rendezvous, but not continue with any further tasks

// in this thread.



// WorkItem.waitingForRendezvous

// This is a property that indicates whether we're in "rendezvous" mode or not.

//

// Data merged so far is in WorkItem.data and WorkItem.attachments

// The new data to merge is in WorkItem.previousWorkItem.data and WorkItem.previousWorkItem.attachments
