[jboss-user] [jBPM] - How To close task from FreeMarker template?

Sat Aug 22 13:32:17 EDT 2009

Hello, 
  Assume that this is wide-spread question, but I cannot find the answer nether in documentation or in forum. The problem is that I cannot close the task to pass the transition workflow to the next task. I used taskFormExample and just added new task which uses some "dummy" form with only one button. Now when transition comes to this task from "Start" element it stops there and not going to "verify_request" task. 

  - What action/element should be used to close task and go to another task if .ftl template is used?

Thanks in advance,

Oleg Ladizhensky
