Delayed Tasks in portal not seen

PWeber — Wed, 13 May 2020 11:35:06 -0400

As a workflow admin I want to see delayed tasks running by the system user. In the BasicWorkflowUi I can see such tasks in the Workflow Admin section. But I didn't find a way to see them in the portal application. So at this time I use both projects: the portal and the BasicWorkflowUi.

Is there a way to see or find delayed or destroyed tasks in the portal application?

Error message on already started task

a_v_a — Thu, 26 Mar 2020 08:45:02 -0400

Hello all,

On older versions of the portal we used to have error message on the top right corner of the task list view of the portal:

But right now with portal version 8.0.2 what we get is an error page instead of that message:

My question is whether we are not doing the proper way? And if so how to solve that issue? Thanks in advance for your help.

who can run a task vs who can see a task

Mohammed Shabana — Mon, 21 Jan 2019 03:20:48 -0500

Hi,

Is it possible to make a task visible to a specified ROLE but only one user can Run it ?

illustration : i want to assign a task to a user in a specific department, but i also want all the users in that department to be able to see the task and track it, but they cannot work on it.

a work-around i came up with is to assign the task to the whole department, but hide the "run" button based on a custom field value in the task. also I added another layer of authentication when the task starts in order to increase security.(see the diagram )

is this work-around secure ?

is there a general solution for this issue ?

i am using v 7.0.2

Set a task to DONE by using Ivy's API

Stefan — Wed, 16 Jan 2019 05:44:48 -0500

Is it possible to set a suspended Task to DONE using the Ivy API? (as it is possible to destroy the task with ivy.task.destroy())

UseCase: Within a process, a task is generated for a specific role (e.g. a task without user interaction / interface etc.) to report the progress. The system/process may now continue working in the background and, as soon it has been done its work, the state of the task should also be set to DONE by using java code (ivyscript code would also be possible).

The reason for that is that the user should see this task in the task history but the task should not going to "destroyed"

Thanks in advance for answers

Why do my tasks disappear?

SupportIvyTeam — Wed, 06 Jun 2018 09:45:49 -0400

Sometimes it seems that tasks disappear from my task list. E.g. I have multiple tasks on my task list, I finish one, return to my task list and then one or more of the other tasks are gone.

How can this happen?

Can not destroy DONE task

trungdv — Fri, 16 Dec 2016 03:49:26 -0500

Hi all

I'm trying to remove task on server, here is the API

public static void destroyPendingTasksByProcessContext(String processKey) throws EnvironmentNotAvailableException, PersistencyException, Exception{
        SecurityManagerFactory.getSecurityManager().executeAsSystem(() -> {
            TaskQuery taskQuery = TaskQuery.create()
              .where().customVarCharField5().isEqual(processKey);
            List<ITask> tasks = Ivy.wf().getTaskQueryExecutor().getResults(taskQuery);
            tasks.forEach(destroyTask -> {
                destroyTask.destroy();
            });
            return StringUtils.EMPTY;
        });
    }

in the query you can see i use a processkey as a flag to destroy all tasks which are related to my project. And i got this exception:

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: State of Task must be one of the following values DELAYED, SUSPENDED, PARKED, RESUMED, UNASSIGNED, FAILED, READY_FOR_JOIN, JOINING, JOIN_FAILED, CREATED, WAITING_FOR_INTERMEDIATE_EVENT but is DONE (The task might have been finished by another user.)

How can we solve it? Thanks

How to resume a process instance

potea — Sun, 03 Apr 2016 11:52:05 -0400

Hello,

how can I resume a process instance? E.g. a user exits a process before the process is ended. How can I display a overview of the not finished processes and let him or another user in a certain role resume at this specific point?

Thanks!

TaskQuery case insensitive search

Emmanuel — Fri, 14 Aug 2015 16:36:27 -0400

Hi all,

Is it possible to search against String Task properties with a TaskQuery so that the search is performed case insensitive.


    TaskQuery stringFieldQuery = TaskQuery.create();
    stringFieldQuery.where().name().isLike("my task name");

I would like that such a query returns the tasks which name is "MY Task NAme". Thanks in advance

Sort Task by CASE_NAME

dbalasse — Tue, 09 Jun 2015 16:57:36 -0400

Hello,

in one of our HTML Dialog, we use a datatable with Ivy Tasks in it. For that we use the ch.ivyteam.wf.common.TaskLazyDataModel as done in the jsfWFUI in the TaskList View. One of our column is #{task.case.name} and I really would like to be able to sort that column. Unfortunately, there CASE_NAME is not present in the TaskProperty Enum and if i figure how it work correctly, it must be there to be able to use sortBy="#{CASE_NAME}". Is there some way to do this ?

FTM I see two options :

In the TaskProperty Enum I saw CUSTOM_VARCHAR_FIELD_1. Would it do the job ? If yes how does it work ? Do you have example(s - one would be enough) ?
Making a table without the lazy part but that would be a problem if the app is heavily used.

Thank you for your answer Denis

Listen to process-case start and task creation & start

Emmanuel — Tue, 03 Mar 2015 17:07:50 -0500

I would like to know if there is a possibility to dynamically listen to all ivy standard processes starts and ivy task creations and starts. The idea would be to get a reference to any standard processes-cases that are started or tasks that are created.

Thanks a lot in advance

Emmanuel
