anonymous wrote : Then you can create a task instance of the mandatory task in the task node There's no way to tie a task instance to a task node. It's only through the task def that there's a link between task/tasknode. I'm already creating the other task instances using event handlers, but its important we have the task/tasknode relationship, and important not all are created at node entry. We could just have NO tasks created at node entry, and then we manually create a task instance ourselves, but allowing the tasks to be created conditionally seems more elegant.
