Removing a successor at runtime

System

Hi All,

We are trying to develop a workflow which has 2 aproval cycles.

In first grouptask, after an approver takes the ownership, he can send the job for another approval cycle(grouptask). After second approver takes the ownership and approves it, the task returns back to first approval cycle(first grouptask). At this point the user should not able to send the job to second group task again.

How can we disable a successorset in first grouptask if the second approval cycle is already completed.

We are using TS 6.5 SP3 on Solaris 9.

Attaching the wft file below.

Thanks a lot!

I am not aware of an API to change the successors. A simple but crude option may be to duplicate the first group task, removing the successor for the second group task. Then get the second group task to point to the duplicated first group task.

The only down side of the solution is that it would not implement ‘retainowner’, on the first group task. However, you may be able to code around this short fall if really required.
