Question: What happens with active timer events, when a process instance is suspended?

Scenario

  • I have a process instance. Its currently due task will be interrupted by a boundary timer event in 2 days.
  • This process instance will be suspended
  • It will be resumed 3 days later
  • When does the boundary event fire? Immediately? Two more days later? Not at all?

Hi @timostolz,

right now, the timer will fire immediately after the instance is resumed since the timer is due.

Best,
Tobias
