[rules-users] Drools Flow 5.1 - Update JPA Entity - while workitem is in pending state - variable persistence strategy

Hi, In Drools Flow (5.1) , if for a work item "Wait For Completion" is true - what is the best way of updating the variables (JPA entities) configured through the Variable Persistence strategy - from a session (loaded through JPAKnowledgeService) while the work item is in the "Pending" state. These variables (JPA entities) were passed to the "startProcess" method of the session (StatefulKnowledgeSession) when the process was earlier started. Thanks Vijay
