Preference | Description |
Automatic task creation using "Implement with New Task" in the process editor | Select this preference to enable simplified creation of a task from within the process editor. When this check box is selected, the Task wizard does not appear, and the task is created with the default settings. This check box is not selected by default. |
Default task project name created from the process editor | Use this box to specify the default name for the composite application project containing tasks you create from within the process editor. The default value is {0}Tasks. The variable {0} represents the name of the process you are adding a task to. For example, if your process is named New_Process, with the default value of {0}Tasks, the tasks you create in the process will appear within the Solutions Explorer in a folder named New_ProcessTasks. No other variables are available. Alternatively, you can type in any valid text string as the default name (no spaces are allowed, or special characters other than '$' and '_'). |
Always use GUID for new Task Type ID | Select this preference to apply an automatically generated globally unique identifier (GUID) to a new task when the task is created. An example of the type of GUID that is automatically generated is: 1436DB52-6E63-311A-5D03-DD3E141EF483. The task type ID cannot be changed after the task is created. When this preference is not selected, you have several choices when you create a new task with the New Task wizard. You can: Click the Generate button to have Designer create a GUID for the task type ID. Type your own unique task type identification. Accept a task type ID based on the project name and task type name. In the latter case, a default name of [ProjectName].[TaskTypeName] is entered in the task ID box. In most cases, this will create a unique task type ID. However, if you are creating a task type with the same task type name as another task type, you will not be able to use this naming solution. You can modify this into any unique text string to create the task type ID (no spaces are allowed, or special characters other than '$' and '_'). This preference is ignored if the automatic task creation preference (above) is selected; in this case, a GUID is always automatically generated. This check box is selected by default. |
Create Task View Portlet for new Task | Select this preference to always create a task view portlet when a new task is created. This check box is selected by default. This behavior can be overridden when you create a task with the task creation wizard. If a task view portlet is not created, the task will have no user interface in My webMethods.

Create Task Start Portlet for new Task | Select this preference to always create a task start portlet when a new task is created. This check box is not selected by default. This behavior can be overridden when you create a task with the task creation wizard. |
Create Task Inbox Portlets for new Task | Select this preference to always create two task inbox portlets when a new task is created (Task Inbox Bar portlet and the Task Inbox Results portlet). This check box is not selected by default. This behavior can be overridden when you create a task with the task creation wizard. |
Use task indexed search content provider | Select this preference to always use an indexed search content provider when a new task is created. This check box is not selected by default. This behavior can be overridden when you create a task with the task creation wizard. For more information about indexed search content providers, see
