Priority

Hi,
I would like to know whether the due date and priority actually affect the workflow or are just available for user information.

These are available for the whole job as well as for the task. How are they useful in both the cases?

In case of due date for a task, does that mean the task transitions to the next task or something. Or in case of a workflow, the workflow ends.

Thanks in advance!!

This does not affect the behavior of the job, theya re only notifications available to the end user.

That being said, it is easy to add timeouts (due dates) to specific tasks and perform a different step based on the timeout passing.

It is being used just for owner information, be it a job or a task.

As said above.. these variables are there for information not for operation.. Please read workflow developer's guide for more information about these variables...
