Thanks. I’m glad it’s not just me!
But I’m interested in this in principle, independent of any specific tool. Googling reveals very little about Global Tasks, and I suspect few tools do implement it.
Personally I think it may be a somewhat redundant construct. I can see no advantage in defining a single task independently of processes that might use it - because it is just a single task and can be represented in multiple diagrams without loss of efficiency.
Interestingly, there is a diagram in the book Real Life BPMN (from the Camunda stable) which shows a task labelled “Global Task” being referenced via Call Activities, but all within a single pool - suggesting that a GT is “global” within the process (or collaboration), rather than global to the process landscape.
Cheerio, Mike
