[jbpm-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JBPM-2869) Ability to supply parameters to start forms

Ability to supply parameters to start forms ------------------------------------------- Key: JBPM-2869 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBPM-2869 Project: jBPM Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Components: Console, Runtime Engine Affects Versions: jBPM 4.3 Reporter: M M Provide a way to supply additional parameters in the "start" activity that would then be available to the task form templates. This would allow one to develop generic start forms that are shared across multiple similar process definitions, but which can be dynamically customized through the injection of these process-definition-specific parameters. For example, two process definitions, Start-Order and Start-Service-Request. The task form might have a header in it like "Start a new ${entity}". In Start-Order process def, we'd somehow specify entity="Order"; likewise in Start-Service-Request, we'd specify entity="Service Request". Having this feature would also enable one to create templates where the form fields are pre-populated with different values, based on which process definition is being started. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
