Thanks for the input. I did originally have it like that. However, our framework automatically generates a history page of variables that were set at each task instance in a process (iterates through all task instances for a process). It then displays a list of each completed task instance to the user, along with all their variables under each task name. Problem is that if I don't use a task node with a task, then the framework wont really know at which node the variables were set. i.e There wont be a task instance for it, so it just wont be shown. Do you have any ideas on another way to link/add variables to a "node", and not a "task node"? So if it doesn't have a task instance, how would I know at which point in the flow, or which node the variables "belong" to?
