For any activity with a service implementation, you can designate the users who receive the runtime task by using the Assignments page in the properties for that activity.

Before you begin

To perform this task, you must be in the IBM® Process Designer desktop editor.

About this task

Note: Assignment options are available only for those activities with a BPM service

implementation.

Procedure

Open the Process Designer desktop editor.

Open a process application that contains a business process definition (BPD). Click an activity in a BPD diagram to display its properties.

Go to the Assignments page in the properties view.

From the Assign To list, choose one of the following options:Table 1. Assignment

Options

Option Description

Lane Assigns the runtime task to the team

associated to the swimlane in which the selected activity is located (the default selection). If you select this option, you can use a team filter service to

dynamically eliminate users from being assigned to the activity.

Team Assigns the runtime task to a team. If

you select this option, you can either specify a static team or use a team retrieval service to dynamically select a suitable set of users. In addition, you can use a team filtering service to

remove unsuitable users from the team.

Routing Policy (Deprecated) Assigns the runtime task according to

the policy that you establish.

List of Users (Deprecated) Assigns the runtime task to an ad hoc

6. 7. A. B. C. D. 8. A. B.

Important: To show up in the Team Performance dashboard, tasks must be

assigned to a Team or a team Lane. Tasks that are assigned to the deprecated options are not displayed on the Team Performance dashboard.

Optional: From the Experts Team list, select the team that you want to associate with the selected activity.

If you selected Assign ToTeam you must assign a team.

To define a new team, click New, provide a name, and complete the team

properties. For more information about the team properties, see Creating a

team.

If you want to select an existing team, click Select, then choose a team from the list.

If you want to specify a fixed team name or a team that is not defined yet, enter

the name as a literal value, for example, damageAssessors.

If you want the team to be selected by the value of a local or environment variable, specify the name of the variable, for example,

tw.local.dynamicTeamName.

Optional: If you selected Assign ToTeam or Assign ToLane the Team Filter

Service section is displayed. If you want to use a team filter service to eliminate

certain users before the user distribution is applied, complete the following steps. To assign a Team Filter Service, either click Select to select an existing team filter service or click New to define a new one. If you select New, perform

Setting up a team filter service.

If the team filter service that you selected or defined requires parameters from the application, a Team Filter Service Input Mapping section is displayed. For each required service variable, enter the corresponding process variable

name, for example tw.local.estimatedClaimAmount or tw.system.user.id

.

Custom (Deprecated) Assigns the runtime task according to

the JavaScript expression that you provide in the corresponding field. To select one or more variables for your expression, click the variable selection icon next to the field. The JavaScript expression produces results such as USER:<user_name> or

ROLE:<group_name>, where user_name is the name of an IBM BPM user (such as author) and group_name is the name of an IBM BPM security group

(such as tw_authors).Note: Complex

JavaScript expressions can be typed in or pasted into the Expression field and can be customized as required. More valid expressions can be chained together to produce a complex JavaScript expression, for example tw.local.isWeekendCrew?"ROLE:Week endManagers":"ROLE:Managers".

From the User Distribution list, choose one of the following options:Table 2.

User Distribution

Assigning an activity to a dynamically retrieved team

If you do not want to assign an activity to a static team, you can define a team retrieval service that dynamically returns a set of users and managers.

Setting up a routing policy (deprecated)

One of the options when routing the runtime tasks that are generated by activities, is to establish a routing policy.

Defining rules with a routing policy (deprecated)

When you establish a Routing Policy for a BPD activity, you establish rules to determine the recipients of the activity as a runtime task.

Assigning an activity to an ad hoc list of users (deprecated)

An activity can be assigned to an ad hoc user list if the user group is defined dynamically when a business process definition (BPD) instance is running.

Parent topic:Creating a business process definition (BPD)

Option Description

None IBM BPM assigns the runtime task to all

potential users (the default setting).

Last User Assigns the runtime task to the user

who completed the activity that immediately precedes the selected activity in the swimlane. Do not select this option for the first activity in a lane unless the activity is a service in a top- level BPD and a Start Event is in the lane. In this case, the runtime task is routed to the user who started the BPD.

Load Balance From the potential users who can

receive the runtime task, IBM BPM assigns to the users who have the fewest number of open tasks, regardless of presence.

Round Robin From the potential users who can

receive the runtime task, IBM BPM assigns to users in a round-robin

fashion. For example, if the users in the Call Center team must receive the

runtime task, IBM BPM assigns each task (created by each process instance) in a series - to one user in the team after another.
