Can we assign a user task to a group

swatis

Hi,

IS there a way to assign a user task to a group? My basic requirement is to escalate the task if it has not been acted upon for more than 24 hours and assign the task to a particular group . I am ok if its a group task as i can untake use remove and add group, but what happens that for a user task when it try to escalate and change the owner of that task using SetOwner($groupname) it gives me error stating no such user exist. Is there a way to accompish this?

Sure. You do not (and in fact can not) change Task type. Instead, make your User Task to transition to
the required Group Task on timeout. Group Task successors may be same or may differ from User task
successors.

Hi,

My problem is if i have a idol task in the wft which is not connected to any other task my wft will not compile. Also i dont want this task to be connected to other task as this is just not required in the flow and if i connect it to other existing tasks user might just click on this. Is there any other option to make this happen?

Hi,
Can you please try to explain this once more.
I tried but could not get what you want to achieve.
Also what do you mean by idol?

Thanks.

Maybe you didn't get what Boris was telling you.. There's no hanging/disconnected task in this, and your overall flow is not changed at all. There's also nothing for users to "accidentally click" in this.

Hi,

If as per you i plave the settimeout element then my task will automatically transition to the next task in the successor list. Instead of directly going it to production i will rather want to go it to a group task only if 24 hours have passed, else the CR user should be able to click directly on deploy to production.I have attached the usertask in txt file.

@ Santosh - by idol i meant that if it would not be connected to any other task in wft.

Hi Swati,
I hope Rick is right.
Though I have not worked on WFT and instead on WFM.
But Still the logic remains the same that if the user performs the action it goes to the next task or else after the specified time it will go to the group task with the help of Timeout link and that the next task is being called after this.
Rick has already drawn this.

Thanks.

I believe the word you were trying to use was idle (doing nothing).

idol is something completely different (either a material object representing a deity [or these days, someone who appears on a TV talent show] or Autonomy's Intelligent Data Operating Layer)
