Insert user-task from one process to another

[aravindhrs]

@andypr, Yes, it’s possible to communicate between the tasks in the different process/pools using intermediate message events/Receive task.

Collaboration Model, Pool communication

Hi @Tony72595, For communication that crosses the boundaries of your process’ pool, you need to use message flows . To account for additional complexity, communication with message flows needs to be defined more explicitly than intra-pool sequence flow communication. Therefore, BPMN uses events. Each incoming message is received by a catching event — the organization waits for the corresponding incoming message. Here’s an example: [image] The delivery address for the package is provided…

Difference between Intermediate Throwing message events and Send Task

@Mass_Shake, You can use either of this. But there’s some differences in usability in terms of limitations. If you use Message events, you can’t attach any boundary events to the intermediate events. But incase of SendTask, you can push the message to the queue/topic also provides the ability to attach interrupting/non-interrupting boundary events. So in that case you can add extra features and have better control over it when some event occurs. From below example, i can attach boundary even…

In the UserTask Task 2.2 → TaskListener → Complete Event → Delegate Expression → Provide implementation to correlate the message with name “completeTask”.

In the messageSender listener provide the implementation like this:

delegateTask.getExecution().getProcessEngineServices().getRuntimeServices()
       .createMessageCorrelation("completeTask")
       .processInstanceBusinessKey("someOrderId")
       .setVariable("CANCEL_REASON", "someReason")
       .setVariable("CANCEL_TIMESTAMP", new Date())
       .correlate();

In the ReceiveTask 1.2 → Message Name → configure the message name as “completeTask”.
