<div class="jive-rendered-content"><p>Hi,</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>I have just started using JBPM5, and have a few questions concerning user task assignments and restrictions.</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>I have built my process using various User Tasks. Each time I complete a Task, I pass in specific parameters which a gateway uses to determine the next possible course of action (which task to execute next) and who to assign the next task to. For instance, when completing the 'Develop' task, I pass in 'assignTo=johnsmith' and 'result=SubmitForReview'. </p><p>This is working quite fine, but if there is a better way to do this, please do tell. I am open to suggestions.</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p><a href="https://community.jboss.org/servlet/JiveServlet/showImage/2-646585-17767/Rules.jpg"><span> https://community.jboss.org/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-646585-17767/450-382/Rules.jpg </span></a></p><p>What I am trying to figure out, if there is someway (progromatically through the API) to determine:</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>1. What are the next possible courses of action? (From Development it can be 'Review' or 'Approve')</p><p>2. Who can perform each one of these tasks?</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>The only way I can figure to achieve somethiing like this, is provide the information in each tasks 'Content' property. If this is the way to do it, how do I access the 'Content' of each task through the API?</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>While I can determine all these things quite easily in my application logic, it would be a great benefit if I can keep all this logic in JBPM and seperate my business rules from the workflow logic. </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>I know from my knowledge of JBPM<strong>3</strong>, that you can achieve somethinig like this quite simply. Is it possible in JBPM5?</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>Thanks</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>Charlie B</p></div>
