Task Configuration Overview
After you create a task, you can define how the task will behave in the run-time environment. For example, you can:
*Add or define business data to be associated with the task, such as a document type that defines task inputs and outputs, one or more data entry fields, or e-form data.
*Create task assignments that will assign a task to a specified user, group, or role depending on the occurrence of a defined condition. For example, when a task status is marked for escalation, assign the task to a manager. You can also configure task assignments to be managed externally, through integration with webMethods Business Rules.
*Create task events that apply an action when a specified change is applied to the task; for example a change in the status, priority, business data, or assignment.
*Create one or more task control sets, each one consisting of a specific collection of task assignments and task events. This enables you to define a specific behavior profile for each control set; when you add the task to a business process in the Process Development perspective, you can specify which control set you want to apply to that particular instance of the task.
