Disable a specific routing path in task

Hello,

 

I have a requirement where I need to disable a specific option from the users to select in a change task. For example, if an activity has two options, Resubmit and Bypass, the option Bypass must be enabled only at certain conditions. Please let me know the feasibility of this one.

 

Thanks,

Sha

One way (not the best) is to loop back to the task if the user chooses what they should not.

On the activity transition, when they choose that option, set a workflow variable, then have a conditional right after it on that path which loops back or continues on.

    To add to what Mike L. mentioned;

     

    I don't think what you are looking for, is something, that's possible out of the box.  You may want to open a Support case to confirm, but the only method I'm aware of, is what Mike L. already mentioned with the conditional routing.

    But, that only comes into play, once the options are already presented, and one is selected.
