Hi @AK_10813265 

You can add an WF variable and check if the variable is set to true in the complete task transaction.

The user will be informed that something is wrong. 

if you need to return error message in the task completion  transition use following code 

 

String msg = "Can not complate the task without checking the check box";
java.lang.Exception exp = new java.lang.Exception(msg);
throw exp;

here is an example with required task comment

hi,

 

thanks for the solution,

 

for creating wf variable here, should it be boolean variable or string variable? and in the display name i need that sentence which i had attached in the image, can you please tell me how to get that?

 

Thanks

Hi @AK_10813265 

Test it. If you use string, how do you think it would be displayed? As a input field i guess.

Try to use boolean. 

 

Try to put the sentence to the display name of the attribute. 

maybe there could be different way how to put there so long text.

Hi @HelesicPetr ,

 

Thanks for the solution,

 

Now I have created the variable and check box is appearing as expected in the task page. there is an additional requirement which is

there are 2 routing options, out of which for "Completed" routing option once selected  it should not complete the task  after clicking "Complete task" button until and unless the check box is selected. but where as the "Return_to_project_owner" routing option once selected even if the check box is not selected it should be allowed to complete the task.

 

AK_10813265_0-1717669740014.png

till now I have this code is handy , which will not allow until the check box is selected but i wanted with routing option condition

public static Object[] criticalitytraceabilitycheck(Object result, boolean Criticalitycheck) throws Exception {
System.out.println("Enter WFT_PolEntChangeActivity.criticalitycheck --> ");


if (Criticalitycheck == false){

result = false;
String msg = "To complete the task, Please select check box";
java.lang.Exception exp = new java.lang.Exception(msg);
throw exp;
}
else {
result = true;
}
Object[] wfAutoExternResult = {result};
return wfAutoExternResult;
}

 

can you please help me on this for the code?
