How to Assign a User Task to multiple users so that all the Users can take action on the business object simultaneously?

I am exploring Workflows in v9.12.2. I am having a use case where a document is assigned to multiple users for review, comment and approval in a workflow. Is it possible to assign a user task to multiple users so that all the Users can take action on the business object simultaneously?

Hi Suvarna,
We can achieve this by creating a child workflow for each user. We have to create two workflows for it (Parent & Child).

  1. In the parent workflow, you can add an user task activity which will call a microflow(Name: WFC_CreateTaskForEachUser) that retrieves list of users to assign and triggers the child workflow repetitively per each users.
  2. The child workflow will be having an user task activity that assigns the context object to a single user. This assigning will happen repetitively per each user present in ‘WFC_CreateTaskForEachUser’ microflow with same context object.
  3. Once all the users complete their task(Child WFlow Task), the parent workflow’s next task will be triggered.

Hi Suvarna 

Yes it is possible.

You can assign the task to multiple users.

But if the task is assigned to one user, then that task will not be assigned to any other users.
