Intalion and tasks with a deadline


Unlike Oracle's solution, I'm not so sure but I think Intalio can't handle tasks with a deadline.

What I want is the task to be canceled once 48 hours have passed and to follow a different sequence flow in this case. Just like this.

Is there any way this purpose could be done with Intalio? Thanks


Solution

  • Intalio lets you attach an interrupter timer to a sub-process(group of task in the process flow). When that timer is hit (48 hours in your case) execution jumps out of the sub-process to the next task in line. I think this might be exactly what you are looking for.

    Human interaction tasks (like completing a form) also have a deadline option that you can set in the mapper. When the deadline is hit the human interaction task is canceled and the process automatically moves on.

    Edit. Added a picture to show how it looks in Intalio designer. When timer is hit process moves on to Task 3. You can also execute a separate stream (optional task in this example)

    Hope this helps. Cheers.
