Hello,

 

I have a requirement where I need to populate the Resource pool of a workflow task based on an attribute, say location, selected by the user at the time of creating a Change Notice. For example, if the user has selected the location as Spain, the resource pool of a set-up participant task should be updated with Spain group for a role. Requesting you to provide some info on the feasibility to implement the same.

 

Thanks,

Sha

This is possible with customization.  @d_graham built something for me that does something very similar.

Hi @Sha11 

There are many ways how to achieve what you need.

 

One option is to create a tasks with your specific participant teams one task for one team

create a conditional route where simple java code checks a value of the parameter and goes to the correct task with right team based on the value.

 

also there can be other way how to do it.

@HelesicPetr ,

 

The way that you mentioned will not work for me, I have multiple teams for various tasks, if I am to follow that way I would have to introduce 70 workflow tasks. Looking for some way to customize the same.

Hi @Sha11 

so you are going to have 70 values in your parameter to define what team should be used as the Resource Pool?

 

and there could be 70 groups of users so you need to manage that groups?
