User Task is the action to take if an event never happens, Script is the action to take if one of the events happens: http://community.jboss.org/servlet/JiveServlet/showImage/2-632797-17203/p... http://community.jboss.org/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-632797-172... -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/632797#632797] Start a new discussion in jBPM at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
